The distance covered by drag racer by going an average speed of 198.37 miles per hour in 4.537 seconds is 0.2500 miles.

<u>Solution: </u>

By using the relationship between distance speed and time, distance is the product of speed and time.

\begin{array}{l}{\text {Speed}=\frac{\text {Distance}}{\text {Time}}} \\\\ {\text {Distance}=\text {Speed} \times \text {Time}}\end{array}

Converting seconds to hours,

We know that 1 \text { second }=\frac{1}{3600} \text { hours }

So, 4.537 \text { seconds }=4.537 \times \frac{1}{3600} \text { hours }  

Average speed = 198.37 miles per hour and time = 4.537 \times \frac{1}{3600} h o u r s

\begin{array}{l}{\text {Distance}=198.37 \frac{\text { miles }}{\text { hours }} \times 4.537 \times \frac{1}{3600} \text { hours }} \\\\ {\text { Distance }=198.37 \times 4.537 \times \frac{1}{3600} \text { miles }=198.37 \times 0.00126} \\\\ {\Rightarrow 0.250001 \approx 0.2500}\end{array}

Distance = 0.2500 miles

What is the formula for lithium and chlorine?
siniylev [52]
LiCl, because lithium (Li) has one positively charged ion (1+), and
chloride (Cl) has one negatively charged ion (1-), so they
cancel each other out.

Some birds migrate 20,000 miles. If 1 mile equals 1.6 kilometers, calculate the distance these birds fly in kilometers.
faust18 [17]
Set up a proportion

1 mile/1.6 km = 20,000miles/x

Cross Multiply
x = (20,000) * (1.6)
x = 32,000 kilometers
