Question

a bullet is shot from a rifle with a velocity of +720 m/s. what time is required for the bullet to strike a target 3240 m away?​

Answer 1

4.5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Bullet travels at 720m/s

Distance it takes to get to the target d=3240m

t=d/v

t=3240m/720m/s

t=4.5 seconds

Answer 2

4.5 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Bullet has to travel a distance pf 3240 m in a velocity of 720 m/s.

We can consider the definition of the velocity and find the answer

`velocity=(Distance)/(Time) \\\\Time     = (Distance)/(Velocity) \\Time=(3240m)/(720ms^(-1) ) \\Time=4.5 s`
