Question

A cargo ship travels at a speed of 12 m/s. How long will it take to travel between two ports which are 600 km apart? Show calculations. (change Km into m first)

Answer 1

Answer:

Time taken by ship to travel 600km or 6,00,000m will be 50,000 sec or 13.89 hours(approx 14 hours)

Explanation:

Formula to find time is

time= distance/speed

so given that ship had to cover distance of 600km or 6,00,000m and its speed is 12m/second.

So after putting the value of distance and speed in si unit (i.e, m and m/second) you will get time in si unit that is in second.

For converting time into hour you can simply multiply 50,000 sec by 1/3600 and then you will get value in hours as well.
