Answer 2

Question:-

A car takes 20 minutes to cover a distance of 24km.Find it's speed in m/s.

Answer:-

• Speed = 20m/s

Solution:-

Given,

• The car takes 20 minutes to cover 24km.

Convert km to m:-

➦ 20 minutes => 20 × 60 = 1200sec

Convert minutes to seconds:-

➦ 24km => 24 × 1000 = 24,000 m

$\boxed{Speed \: = \: \frac{Distance}{Time} }$

➦ S = d/t

➦ Speed = 24000/1200

➦ Speed = 20m/s.
