Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf C. \ 30 \ m/s \ east}}[/tex]
Explanation:
Velocity is the vector measurement of the change in position over time. A vector measurement means the answer must include a magnitude (numerical value) and a direction.
Here are some units of velocity:
m/s (meters per second) kph (kilometers per hour) km/s (kilometers per second)There are many other units, but m/s is the most common.
We can eliminate choice B and D, because the units (meters-m and meters per second squared-m/s²) are not for velocity.
We are left with choice A (30 m/s) and C (30 m/s east). Remember, velocity needs a number and a direction. C contains the direction east, so it must be the correct answer.
