Answer:
1. 20 km/h
2. 70 m/h
3. 6.5 h
4. 4.5 s
5. 184 km
Step-by-step explanation:
For first two questions, you can use the following formula:
I denote ‘s’ be speed, ‘d’ be distance and ‘t’ be time. Some books may use ‘v’ for speed instead of ‘s’ but I use ‘s’ variable instead so it makes the equation easier to memorize.
Therefore, speed = distance/time
( 1 ) The first question is given both distance be 60 km and time be 3 hours. Therefore:
So for the first question, the speed is 20 km/h
( 2 ) The second is given both distance be 140 m and time be 2 hours. Therefore:
Therefore, speed is 70 m/h
For the third and four questions, we will be finding time. From the speed formula:
Multiply both sides by t.
Divide both sides by s.
Therefore, time = distance/speed
( 3 ) The question is given speed be 40 km/h and distance be 260 km. Therefore:
Therefore, time is 6.5 h
( 4 ) The question is given speed be 16 cm/s and distance be 72 cm. Therefore:
Therefore, time is 4.5 s
For the last question, we have to find distance. From the speed formula:
Multiply both sides by t.
Therefore, distance = speed * time
( 5 ) The question is given time be 4 hours and speed be 46 km/h. Therefore:
Therefore, distance is 184 km.
