John ran from the High School to his house to get the DS that he forgot. John ran 2 miles in 10 minutes. Then John walked to his friends house who lived 100 yards to the west of his house. It took John 1 minute to walk to his friend’s house.
Speed= 2miles/10min= .2 miles/min
Velocity= 100yards/ 1min = 100 yards/min west
Acceleration =
(100 yards/min – 0 yds/min ) / 1 minute = 100yds/min/min
