Answer:

Speed, S = 0.5m/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Distance = 30 meters

Time = 1 minute = 60 seconds

To find the speed;

Speed can be defined as distance covered per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity and as such it has magnitude but no direction.

Mathematically, speed is given by the equation;

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

Substituting into the above formula;

[tex]S = \frac{30}{60}[/tex]

Speed, S = 0.5m/s
