Question

A car traveling at a speed of 63 kilometers per hour. What is the car’s speed in meters per second? How many meters will the car travel in 10 seconds? Don’t round answer

Answer 1

Answer:

Speed = 1050 meters per seconds

Distance =10500 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Car traveling at a speed of 63 kilometers per hour

Let us convert this into meter per second

Speed = $\frac{63 }{1}$  kilometers per hour

Speed = $\frac{63 \ kilometers }{1 \ hour}$  --------(A)

1 kilometer = 1000 meters

1 hours = 3600 seconds

Replacing them  in (A)

Speed = $\frac{63 \times 1000 \ meters }{1 \times 60 \ seconds}$

Speed = $\frac{63 \times 1000}{1 \times 60}$ meters per seconds

Speed = $\frac{63000}{60}$ meters per seconds

Speed = 1050 meters per seconds

Distance = speed x time

Speed = 1050 mt per sec

time = 10 sec

Distance = 1050 x 10 = 10500 meters
