Question

4. A car is moving with a speed of 50m/s in 10 sec. Another car moving with a speed of 50 m/s it takes
15 sec. Calculate and find out which covers more distance and how much?

Answer 1

GIVEN :-

• Speed of the first car = 50 m/s

• Time taken by the first car = 10 sec

• Speed of the second car = 50 m/s

• Time taken by the second car = 15 sec

TO FIND :-

• The car which covers more distance and how much .

SOLUTION :-

   $\bf DISTANCE = SPEED \times TIME$

• Distance travelled by the first car

        $\longrightarrow \sf 50 \times 10 \\\\\longrightarrow \bf 500 \ m$

• Distance travelled by the second car

        $\longrightarrow \sf 50 \times 5 \\\\\longrightarrow\bf 750 \ m$

   Difference in distance covered by the two cars ,

      $\longrightarrow \sf 750 - 500 \\\\\longrightarrow 250 \ m$

   The distance covered by the second car is more than the distance

    covered by the first car by 250 m .
