01. Calculate the distance of the body when
(a) Car was travelling with a speed of 560m/s for 30min
(b) Train traveling with a speed of 60km/hour for a day
Answers
Required Answer :-
(a) Speed of the car = 560 m/s
Time = 30 min = 30 × 60 = 1800 s
Now using the relation between distance , time and speed ;
⇒ Distance = Speed × time
⇒ Distance = 560 m/s × 1800 sec
⇒ Distance = 1008000 m = 1008 km
Hence , The distance travelled by the car is 1008 km or 1008000 m.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
(b) Speed of the train = 60 km/hr
Time = 1 day = 24 hrs
Now Applying the relation between Speed , distance and time ;
⇒ Distance = 60 km/hr × 24 hrs
⇒ Distance = 1440 km
Hence , The distance travelled by the train is 1440 km.
Speed is rate at which an object covees a distance.
So,
Speed = 560m/sec
Time = 30min
- 1 min = 60sec
30min = (30×60) seconds
Time = 1800sec
Distance = (560 × 1800)m
Speed = 60km/hr
Time = 1day = 24hrs
Distance = ( 60 × 24 )km
Note :-
- See the units properly.
In (a) , we had time in minutes , so we converted it to seconds.
