BUTTER-BENZ said:10m/13s = .769 m/s (made into 8m/s)
but 25m/32s = .78125 m/s (also made into 8 m/s)
how can they both be 8 m/s? when they have a different distance and speed?

Distance and speed are inversely proportional, meaning that as distance increases, speed decreases. This is because it takes longer to cover a larger distance at the same speed as a smaller distance. However, if the time taken to cover the distance is constant, then distance and speed are directly proportional.
Average speed is the total distance traveled divided by the total time taken to cover that distance. It gives an overall picture of the speed during the entire journey. On the other hand, instantaneous speed is the speed at a specific moment in time, and it can vary throughout the journey.
Speed and time are directly proportional. This means that as speed increases, the time it takes to cover a certain distance decreases. For example, if you are driving at a speed of 60 km/h, it will take you 1 hour to cover a distance of 60 km. However, if you increase your speed to 120 km/h, it will only take you 30 minutes to cover the same distance.
Yes, distance and speed can affect an object's acceleration. Acceleration is the rate of change of an object's velocity, which includes both speed and direction. If an object is traveling at a constant speed and changes direction, its acceleration will be affected by the change in distance and speed.
To calculate the speed of an object at a certain distance, we can use the formula: speed = distance ÷ time. This means that if we know the distance an object has traveled and the time it took to cover that distance, we can calculate its speed. For example, if a car traveled 100 km in 2 hours, its speed would be 50 km/h.
