Question

If you travel at 3 m/s for 12 seconds, how far did you travel?

Answer 1

Answer:

$\boxed {\tt 36 \ meters }$

Explanation:

We want to find how far was traveled, or the distance.

The formula for distance is:

$d=s*t$

where $s$ is the speed and $t$ is the time.

The speed is 3 meters per second and the time is 12 seconds.

$s= 3 \ m/s \\t= 12 \ s$

Substitute the values into the formula.

$d= 3 \ m/s * 12 \ s$

Multiply. Note that when multiply, the seconds, or $s$ will cancel.

$d= 3 \ m * 12$

$d= 36 \ m$

$d= 36 \ meters$

The distance traveled was 36 meters.

Answer 2

Answer:

V=3 m/s

t=12 seconds

S=?

S=V×t

S=3×12

S=36meters

So distance you travel is 36meters.
