The distance. Covered by a car moving at a speed of 30 km/ hr in 15 minutes is
Answers
Answer:
Speed= 30 km/h
Time= 15 mins (divide it by 60 to convert into hours.)
= 15/60 hrs = 1/4 h
Distance = speed × time
= 30 km/h × 1/4 h
= 15/2 km = 7.5 km
Thus, the distance travelled is 7.5 km.

Answer:
The distance covered by a car moving at a speed of 30 km/ hr in 15 minutes is 7.5 km
Explanation:
Speed of an object is defined as the distance covered by an object in unit time.
Given: -
Speed of the car = 30 km/h
Time taken = 15 minutes
To be calculated: -
Distance travelled by the car.
Solution: -
We know that to calculate speed of an object, we use the following expression: -
Speed = Distance / Time
so, Distance = Speed X Time
Speed of the car = 30 km/h
Time = 15 min
We will have to convert time from minutes to hours.
We know that
60 min = 1 hour
15 min = 15 /60 hour
= 1/4 hour =
Now, we have to put the values in the expression to calculate distance.
Distance = 30 X 1/4
= 7.5 km
The distance covered by a car moving at a speed of 30 km/ hr in 15 minutes is 7.5 km
