If a train traveled at 50 meters within 120 seconds, what is its speed?
1 answer:
Answer:
v = 0.416 m/s
Step-by-step explanation:
Give that,
Distance covered by a train, d = 50 m
Time taken, t = 120 s
We need to find the speed of a train. The formula for speed of an object is equal to the total distance covered divided by total time taken. It can be given by :
So, the speed of a train is 0.416 m/s.

Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
I don't think you need the quadratic formula for this equation. It just factors into (b - 2)(b - 2), but I'll do it because you requested it.
Formula
Givens
a = 1
b = - 4
c = 4
Solution
x = - - 4 +/- sqrt((-4^2) - 4*1*4)
====================
2*1
x = 4 +/- sqrt (16 - 16)
==========
2
x = 4/2
x = 2
There are 2 roots but both of them are the same. Some teachers say there is only 1 root. I'm in that group.
The answer is 4/3 and I checked two times
