How to use this Average Velocity Calculator 🤔
There are input fields for Distance \((d)\), Time \((t)\), and Average Velocity \((v)\). Enter any two inputs and click on Calculate button.
The calculator uses the \( v = \frac{ d }{ t }\) formula, substitues given values, and calcuates the missing value(s).
A missing value is calcuated and displayed in the input field. Also, the caculation is displayed under the input section.
What is Average Velocity?
Average velocity is a measure of the overall speed and direction of an object as it moves from one point to another. It is calculated by dividing the total distance traveled by the time it takes to travel that distance.
Calculating Average Velocity
The average velocity of an object is calculated using the formula:
\( v = \frac{d}{t} \).
In this formula, d represents the distance traveled, and t represents the time taken to travel that distance.
