Transcription: In this example, we're being given the same data we were given in the previous example. The car traveled a distance of 78 miles and it took a time of 1.2 hours to get there. We're also being asked to calculate the speed. This time, however, we're being asked to calculate the speed not in miles per hour like we got in the previous example, but in meters per second. So we want to calculate the same speed, we just want to calculate it in different units. Well, we use the same equation In equation again, speed equals distance over time, but now we have a problem. We need our speed in meters per se ...
