Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 8 \ m/s}}[/tex]
Explanation:
Speed is equal to distance over time.
[tex]s=\frac{d}{t}[/tex]
The distance is 400 meters and the time is 50 seconds.
[tex]d= 400 \ m \\t= 50 \ s[/tex]
Substitute the values into the formula.
[tex]s=\frac { 400 \ m }{ 50 \ s}[/tex]
Divide.
[tex]s= 8 \ m/s[/tex]
The speed of the car is 8 meters per second.
