Average speed is defined as the ratio of total distance covered in total given time
here we know that total distance that man moved is
so total distance is
now here total time of the motion is
total time will be given as
now by above formula
so his average speed is 30 km/h
Answer:
t = 13.7 s or t = 14 s with proper significant figures
Explanation:
The initial speed is 0 m/s since the car starts from rest, acceleration is 5.5 m/s2 and distance is 523 m.
Since we have initial speed, acceleration and distance we can use the following formula to find the time. We can now use algebra to work out our answer.
d = vt + at²
523 = (0)t + ()(5.5)t²
523 = 2.8t²
186.8 = t²
13.7 s = t
(t = 14 s with proper significant figures)
