Question

Another Salt Marsh Harvest Mouse took 7 seconds to run a 350 centimeter race. How fast did it run?

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer: The mouse ran the race at an average of 1.12 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Given: time taken to run = 7 seconds

           length of the race = 350 centi meter

To find: The speed of the mouse

Solution: We can convert the length of the race from centi meters to meters by dividing it by 100.

Hence, 350 centi meters = 350/100 meters

                                          = 3.5 meters

Therefore, the speed of the mouse = distance/time

                                                           = 3.5/7 m/s

                                                           = 0.5 m/s

                                                           = 0.5 × 18/5 km/hr

                                                           = 1.8 km/hr

Answer: 0.5 m/s (or 1.8 km/hr)
