What is the speed of an object that travels from #( 1, -2, 3 ) # to #(6 , 0, 7 ) # over #4 s#? Physics 1D Motion Displacement and Velocity 1 Answer Cosmic Defect Feb 22, 2016 Assuming a straight line motion: #v=(\Delta X)/(\Deltat)=\frac{(\sqrt{(6-1)^2+(0-(-2))^2+(7-3)^2})units}{4s}=1.677 (units)/s#.
