Answer 2

Concept

An object's or person's speed is a measure of how swiftly they are traveling.If you know how far something has traveled and how long it took to get there, you can calculate its average speed. Speed is determined by the formula: speed = distance/ time.

Given

distance covered by a person = 7 kmph

Find

we need to find how many meters does a person cover in 2 minutes.

Solution

given, distance covered by a person = 7 kmph

In 60 minutes distance covered = 72000m

In one minute distance covered = 72000/60 = 1200

In two minutes distance covered = 1200 × 2 = 2400 m

Hence distance covered by the person in 2 minutes is 2400 m.
