Question

10. A bus travels at a speed of 10 m/s. How long
will it take to cover a distance of 6 km?​

Answer 1

Given :

• Speed of bus = 10m/s
• Distance covered by bus = 6 km

To find :

• Time taken by bus

Formula used :

$\sf t = \dfrac{d}{s}$

Where :-

• d = distance
• t = time
• s= speed

$\boxed{\sf1 \: km = 1000 \: m}$

Solution :

We have to find out time taken by bus to travel 6 km at a speed of 10m/s.

Now , first we will convert 6 km into metres.

=> 1 km = 1000 m

=> 6 km =6× 1000 m

=> 6 km =6000 m

$\sf \implies t = \dfrac{6000}{10}$

$\sf \implies t = \dfrac{600}{1}$

$\sf \implies t = 600 \: s$

Answer :

Time taken by bus to travel 6 km ( 6000m) at a speed of 10m/s = 600 seconds
