Greetings!

Firstly, to find speed you need to remember the speed formula:

Speed = Distance ÷ Time

You can do it by doing 2800 ÷ 2 but that gives m/h (metres per hour)

So to convert hours into seconds, you multiply 2 by 7200 (amount of second in 2 hours:

2 * 7200 = 14400 seconds

Now we can do distance ÷ time by plugging the values in:

2800 ÷ 14400 = [tex]\frac{7}{36}[/tex] ≈0.194

So the average speed is 0.194m/s (metres per second)

Hope this helps!
