Lila is a track and field athlete. She must complete four laps around a circular track. The track itself is a 400 meter track and it took her 6 minutes total to complete. Which best describes her speed and velocity? A. Her speed is 4.4 m/s, and her velocity is 0 m/s B. Her speed is 1.1 m/s, and her velocity is 0 m/s C. Her speed is 0 m/s, and her velocity is 2400 m/s D. Her speed is 4.4 m/s, and her velocity is 4.4 m/s

Her speed is 1.1 m/s, and her velocity is 0 m/s

Explanation:

Speed = Distance covered/Time

Given

Distance = 400m

Time = 6minutes = 6*60 = 360 secs

Substitute the given parameter into the formula;

Speed = 400/360

Speed = 1.1m/s

Since the track is a circular track, the displacement will be zero. She is only moving in a circular path (no direction)

Velocity = Displacement/Time

Velocity = 0/3600

Velocity = 0m/s

Hence her speed is 1.1 m/s, and her velocity is 0 m/s
