Answer:

Option B. 7 m/s West.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Position 1 (P₁) = 3 m West

Position 2 (P₂) = 45 m West

Time (t) = 6 s

Velocity (v) =?

Next, we shall determine the displacement of Ben. This can be obtained as follow:

Position 1 (P₁) = 3 m West

Position 2 (P₂) = 45 m West

Displacement =?

Displacement = P₂ – P₁

Displacement = 45 – 3

Displacement = 42 m West

Finally, we shall determine the velocity of Ben. This can be obtained as follow:

Time (t) = 6 s

Displacement (d) = 42 m West

Velocity (v) =?

v = d/t

v = 42 m West / 6 s

v = 7 m/s West

Thus the velocity of Ben is 7 m/s West
