Understanding the Speed Distance Time Formula
The relationship between speed, distance, and time is fundamental in physics. The formula triangle is a handy way to remember the three equations:
- Speed = Distance ÷ Time (How fast something is moving)
- Distance = Speed × Time (How far something has traveled)
- Time = Distance ÷ Speed (How long it takes to travel)
Frequently Asked Questions
How to calculate average speed?
Total Average Speed is always Total Distance divided by Total Time. Do not simply average the speeds of different legs of a journey.
