Rate of Speed Formula
The formula for velocity, or rate of speed, is \(r = d \div t\), where r represents rate of speed, d represents distance, and t represents time. For example, if an object travels 12 feet in 10 seconds, you can find its rate of speed by using the formula.
\(r = d \div t\)
\(r = 12 \div 10\)
r = 1.2 feet per second
Use division and the formula for rate of speed to solve.
