Lydia walks 3 meters in 2 seconds she stops and looks up at the sun for 5 seconds she proceeded to walk for 5 more meters in 3 seconds what was the speed lydia walked?

1.6 m/s

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Time taken for walking 3 meters = 2 seconds

Time taken for traveling 5 more meters = 3 seconds

Time spent on looking at sun = 5 seconds

Now,

Speed = Total Distance traveled : total Time taken while walking

or

Speed = (3 m + 5 m) : (2 s + 3 s)

Speed = 8 : 5

Speed = 1.6 m/s

Hence,

Speed lydia walked = 1.6 m/s
