Question

A biker travels at an average speed of 18 km/h along a 0.30-km straight segment of a bike path. How much time ( in hours)does the biker take to travel this segment?

Answer 1

The biker will take "0.016 hours".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given values are:

Average speed,

`V_(avg)` = 18 km/h

Distance,

d = 0.30 km

As we know,

⇒
`V_(avg)=(d)/(t)`

or,

⇒
`t=(d)/(V_(avg))`

On substituting the values in the above formula, we get

⇒
`=(0.30 \ km)/(18 \ km/h)`

⇒
`=0.016 \ hours`
