Formula of Speed?
Everyday Science / Physics — Multiple-choice practice
- A. Speed = Time / Distance
- B. Speed = Distance + Time
- C. Speed = Distance × Time
- D. Speed = Distance / Time
Correct answer
Speed = Distance / Time
Explanation
Explanation Speed tells how fas t an object moves. It is calculated by dividing the distance traveled by the time taken. Formula: Speed = Distance ÷ Time. The standard unit of speed is m/s (meters per second) or km/h. Dimensional formula of speed is [M^0 L^1 T^-1] or smply [LT^-1] Last updated on 06-March-2026
