Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Given -

Distance between John's house to school = 1.2 km

Time taken to reach school = 10 minutes

To find -

The speed

Solution -

We know that

1 km = 1000 m

1.2 km = 1.2 × 1000 m

= 1200 m

1 min = 60 sec

10 min = 10×60 sec

= 600 sec

Speed = distance/time

= 1200 m /600 s

= 12/6 m/s

= 2 m/s

Hence John's speed = 2 m/s

hope it helps.
