Question

If you are driving 85 km/h along a straight road and you look to the side for 2.6 s , how far do you travel during this inattentive period?

Answer 1

Answer:

61.39 m

  OR

0.06139 km

Explanation:

Given speed = 85 km/h

Which means,

(1 km = 1000 m and 1 hour = 3600 seconds)

85000 meters in 3600 seconds

So, for 2.6 seconds distance traveled will be,

= (2.6 x 85000)/ 3600

= 61.39 meters

= 0.06139 km
