While Mr. SGNU is correct here, you must also shift your weight to your heels using the heelbone as a fulcrum to assist you thrust backwards. Another effective strategy is to simply bend your knees and lean back as if in a limbo. This would create a higher amount of surface area on the ground to assist with friction, thus slowing or stopping your fall. This would give you an effective amount of time to react and move away from the edge.

If a car is traveling at an average speed of 60 kilometers per hour how long does it take to travel 12 kilometers
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The time taken to travel is, t = 12 minutes

Explanation:

Given data,

The speed of the car, v = 60 km/h

The distance of travel, d = 12 km

The time taken for the travel is t = ?

The speed is defined as the distance divided by the time taken to travel. The formula for speed is,

                                  v = d/t

∴                                  t = d/v

                                    t = 12 km / 60 km/h

                                    t = 0.2 h

                                     t = 12 minutes

Hence, the time taken to travel is, t = 12 minutes.
