What is the velocity of a car that traveled a total of 75 kilometers north in 1.5 hours?

$Velocity = \frac{Displacement}{Time}$ $"Velocity" = "Displacement"/"Time"$

Explanation:

$75 km = 75000 m$ $"75 km = 75000 m"$

$1.5 hours = 5400 sec$ $"1.5 hours = 5400 sec"$

Applying the formula

$Velocity = \frac{75000 m}{5400 s} = 13.89 m/s$ $"Velocity" = "75000 m"/"5400 s" = "13.89 m/s"$
