Practice Problems 1. If Sam swims 0.5Km in 30 minutes, find his speed in Km/min. 2. If a car’s speed is recorded at 15mi/hr, find its speed in m/hr. 3. A car is travelling at 30mi/hr. Find its speed in m/s. 4. A car travels 20m North for 120 seconds. It then travels 30m East for 200 seconds. Calculate the average speed of the car. 5. Find the distance a car travelled if it takes 3 hrs to get to its destination from its starting point. The car is travelling at an average speed of 20mi/hr. 6.
