Question

A car driver moving at a speed of 100 km/h

spends 2 s looking at a damaged car at the side
of the road. Calculate the distance covered by his
car during these 2s.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

`speed = (distance)/(time \: taken) .`

where;

Speed = 100 km/h.

Time = 2second

if 1h = 3600 sec

the ? = 2 sec

`(2)/(3600) * 1hour \\ = 0.0005556hour`

therefore time = 0.0005556 second.

There the distance covered

`100 = (d)/(0.0005556) \\ d = 100 * 0.0005556 \\ d = 0.05556 \: km`
