Question

A supersonic jet is at an altitude of 14 kilometers flying at 1,500 kilometers per hour toward the east. At this velocity, how far will the jet fly in 1.6 hours?

Answer 1

Answer:

The jet will fly 2400 km.

Explanation:

Given the velocity of the jet flying toward the east is 1,500 kmph toward the east.

We need to find the distance covered in 1.6 hours.

In our problem we are given speed and time, we can easily determine the distance using the following formula.

$Distance=Speed\times Time$

$Distance=1500\times 1.6=2400\ km$

So, the supersonic jet will travel 2400 km in 1.6 hours toward the east from its starting point.
