Default I need to build a graph Chart

Hello, I am a Physics student and I need to build three graph charts showing
the velosity. I need to take my data for Distance and divide it by the time
to get my average speed. How do I create a chart to show this data?? I have
tried several times and it doesnt turn out right..
graph 1 data is
Distance Time Average Speed
10 m 0.96 s 10.41 m/s
20 m 2.84 s 7.04 m/s
30 m 4.00 s 7.50 m/s
Graph 2 data is.
Distance Time Average Speed
10 m 0.78 s 12.82 m/s
20 m 2.28 s 8.77 m/s
30 m 4.70 s 6.38 m/s
graph 3 data is

Distance Time Average Speed
10 m 0.78 s 12.82 m/s
20 m 2.65 s 7.54 m/s
30 m 4.00 s 7.50 m/s

Would appreciate any help on this today if possible.

Default I need to build a graph Chart

Suppose that starting in A1 you have
10 0.96
20 2.84
30 4.00
In C1 (next to the cell with 0.96) enter =B1.A1 to compute the velocity
(please note spelling)
Copy this down to the last row of the data
Use the mouse to select A1:A3; hold the CONTROL key (CTRL) and select also
C1:C3
Click the Chart Wizard and make an BY chart
Now that you have see how easy it is; go to library and find a simple Excel
book to learn more

What do you want to show on the chart? Are you trying to plot speed against
time, or speed against distance, or what?
When you say you want 3 charts, do you actually want 3 separate charts, or
do you want one chart showing the 3 data series?

I hope that your data doesn't include the m and s and m/s text, and that it
merely has the 3 columns showing 10, 0.96, and 10.412 respectively?

Your problem description of "I have tried several times and it doesnt turn
out right." doesn't really help us to help you. Why not tell us what you
tried, what results you got, and in what way those results differd from what
you intended?

I think Bernard may have intended to spell his formula as =A1/B1 rather than
=B1.A1 :-)

.... and the A1 and B1 were back to front, but apart from that the formula
was good!
We all have days like that. :-)
