Your friend told you the motion of rocket is fast motion. Will you agree? How can you decide whether the motion of a body is slow or fast?

Answer»

1. Yes. I agree with him. Because rockets move with the speed of 12 km per second. Its very high speed. 

2. The distance travelled by an object in a given interval of time can help us to decide whether it is faster or slower. 

3. The distance travelled by an object in a unit time is called as its Speed. 

4. Speed = Distance travelled / Time taken to travel. 

5. Units of speed is meter per second (m/s) or kilometre per hour (Km/h). 

6. 1 Km / h = 5/18 m/s 

7. The object moving with less speed is slow and more speed is fast. Thus we can decide whether the motion of a body is slow or fast using its speed. 

8. At a particular instant of time, we can find speed of a vehicle using speedometer.
