Given:

Distance = 36 meters

Time = 4 seconds

Since we are given the distance and the time, then we can assume that we need to determine the velocity of the turtle.

Formula for the velocity of the turtle.

v = d/t

v =velocity

d = distance

 t = time

Solution:

Substitute the given values of the distance and time to the formula for the velocity of the turtle

v = d/t

v = 36 m / 4s

v = 9 m/s

Final answer:

v = 9 m/s
