Question

a car takes 48 minutes to cover a distance of 60 km calculate its speed in metre per second

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1km=1000m

6km=6000m(distance)

1min=60s

48min=2880s(time)

Speed=distance/time taken

Hence,

Speed=6000/2880 ms-1

=2.083ms-1

Answer 2

time taken = 48min = 48×60 sec

distance travelled = 60 km = 60000m

$speed = \frac{distance \: travelled}{time \: taken}$

v=60000/(48×60)

=1000/48

= 20.834m/sec

hope this helps you
