The speed of the snake is 8.95 miles per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
The snake travels at a speed of 20 meters in 5 seconds.
We will need to determine the distance it covered in a single second. To do that we divide the distance covered in 5 seconds by 5.
The distance covered in 1 second
So the snake is moving at a distance of 4 meters per second.
Step 2:
To convert the speed of the snake from meters per second to miles per hour, we multiply the speed in meters per second by 2.23694.
So to attain 4 meters per second in miles per hour, we multiply it by 2.23694.
4 meters per second miles per hour.
Rounding this off, we get the speed of the snake as 8.95 miles per hour.
