A cyclist traveling at a uniform speed covers a distance of 9 km in 30 minutes.
______________________________
The speed of cyclist in m/s.
______________________________
Distance travelled by cyclist (s) = 9 km
Time taken to cover the distance (t) = 30 minutes, i.e., 1/2 hour
Now,
speed = distance/time
==> v = 9/½
==> v = 9 × 2/1
==> v = 18 km/h
Hence, speed of cyclist in km/h is 18 km/h.
Now, speed in m/s
= 18 × 1000/60 × 60
= 18000/3600
= 5 m/s.
