Question

5. How far has a cyclist traveled if she has been moving at 30 m/s for 5.0 minutes?

Answer 1

Answer:

9000 m

Explanation:

To calculate the distance traveled by cyclist, using the relation between distance, velocity and time as

d = v × t

Here, d is distance traveled, v is velocity and t is time taken.

We have, v = 30 m/s and t = 5 min = 5×60= 300 s.

Substituting these values in above formula we get

d = 30 m/s × 300 s

d = 9000 m.

Thus, the distance traveled by cyclist is 9000 m.
