Ahmed is moving in his car with a speed of 72km/h.how much distance will he cover in a)one minute
Answers
GIVEN :-
Speed of Amhed's car (v) = 72 km/h = 20 m/s
Time taken (t) = 1 min = 60 s
TO FIND :-
The distance covered(s) by Ahmed in 1 minute.
FORMULA TO BE USED :-
- Distance = Speed × Time
- ⇒Speed = Distance/Time
- ⇒v = s/t
SOLUTION :-
Applying the formula above by putting the known values :-
Distance = 20 × 60
⇒s = 1200 m
⇒s = 1.2 km
◙ Distance is the total length of the path between the initial position and the final position.
◙ Speed of an object is the magnitude of the change of its position.
◙ Time, distance and speed are scalar quantities. This means, they don't need a direction for determining them.
Given :-
Speed of car(s) = 72km/h
Time (t)= 1 minute = 60 seconds
To find :-
The distance covered by car in the given time
Formula used
Speed :- Speed is defined as the movement of body per unit time.
•It is scalar quantity ( only magnitude no direction )
•SI unit of speed is m/s
- Convert 72km/h in m/s
Time = 60 sec
Now find the distance !
