Answer:

Av = 25 [m/s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the definition of speed, which is defined as the relationship between distance over time. for this case we have.

[tex]Av=\frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

where:

Av = speed [km/h] or [m/s]

distance = 180 [km]

time = 2 [hr]

Therefore the speed is equal to:

[tex]Av = \frac{180}{2} \\Av = 90 [km/h][/tex]

Now we must convert from kilometers per hour to meters per second

[tex]90[\frac{km}{h}]*1000[\frac{m}{1km}]*1[\frac{h}{3600s} ]= 25 [m/s][/tex]
