Answer:
a) distance traveled is 16 miles.
b) distance traveled is 40 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed is a scalar quantity which describe the rate of distance moved with time.
i.e speed =
Given that: distance = 2 1/3 miles = miles, time = 3 1/2 minutes =
minutes.
Then;
speed = ÷
= x
=
The car's steady speed is 0.67 miles per minute.
a) when the time is 24 minutes, the distance covered can be determine by:
distance = speed x time
= x 24
= 16
distance traveled is 16 miles.
b) When the time is 1 hour (60 minutes), the distance traveled can be determined by:
distance = speed x time
= x 60
= 40
distance traveled is 40 miles.
