Question

Hello, I have been trying to figure a plausible solution for #1 inchapter 2 for days. It states a car spills a drop of oil every 5 s.Shows a diagram of the pattern the oil made, and states overall thedistance is 600 m for the 6 drops spilled, which i assume to be 30s. What I don't understand is for parts a - e it gives a speed orvelocity, meanwhile the question is asking for the average speedover these sections of motion. What does this mean?

Explanation / Answer

6 drops span 5 intervals of time (the 1st drop marks thebeginning of time or 0 sec) v = s / t = 600 / 25 = 24 m/s
