A downhill skier was able to move 560 meters in 25 seconds. What is the skier's average speed? (Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a meter per second.)

The speed of the skier is 22 m/sec.

Given : A downhill skier was able to move 560 meters in 25 seconds.

We know distance = speed * time taken

⇒ 560 m = speed * 25 sec

⇒ speed = 560/25 = 22.4 m/sec ≈ 22 m/s

Thus the skier’s average speed is 22m/s
