Question

A bullet travelling at an average speed of 2 x 10³ kmh-¹ hits a target 500 m away. Find the time of the bullet's flight, in seconds. ​

Answer 1

Answer: 0.25 seconds.

Explanation:

To find the time of flight of the bullet, we need to divide the distance the bullet travels by its velocity.

Average speed is distance over time. so

time = distance/speed

time = 500m / (2000 m/s)

time = 0.25 seconds

So, the bullet's flight time is 0.25 seconds.
