how to calculate the speed of an object in meters per second in matlab

To calculate the speed of an object in meters per second in MATLAB, you need to know the distance traveled by the object and the time taken to travel that distance. Once you have these values, you can use the following formula to calculate the speed:

speed = distance / time

Here's an example code snippet that takes the distance and time values as inputs from the user and then calculates the speed in meters per second:

main.m
% Take distance and time as input from user
distance = input('Enter the distance traveled (in meters): ');
time = input('Enter the time taken (in seconds): ');

% Calculate the speed in meters per second
speed = distance / time;

% Display the result
fprintf('The speed of the object is %.2f meters per second\n', speed);
322 chars
10 lines

Once you run this code, it will prompt you to enter the distance traveled and time taken values. After you enter these values, it will calculate the speed and display it in meters per second. Note that the %.2f format specifier is used to display the speed value with 2 decimal places.
