Question

A CAR cover a dsitance of 24m in 5 mints. Find its speed in m/s

Answer 1

Answer:

Hi mate here's your answer to the question...

Distance = 24 m

Time = 5 min = (5×60)sec = 300 sec

Speed = 24m÷300 sec = 0.08 m/sec

Explanation:

Hope this answer helps you mate...

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{2}{25} m/s$

Explanation:

Given:

Distance covered = 24 metres

Time = 5 minutes

1 minute = 60 seconds

5 minutes = 5×60 = 300 seconds

To find:

Speed of the car in m/s (so we need to first covert the distance in terms of metres and the time in terms of seconds which are useful for getting us the SI unit correctly)

We know that speed = $\frac{distance}{time}$

So substituting the above values, we get:

Speed = $\frac{24}{300}$

Simplifying,

Speed = $\frac{2}{25} m/s$

The speed of the car in m/s is equal to $\frac{2}{25} m/s$
