Answer:
The answer to your question is given below.
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Speed limit = 60 km/h
To know if the car was speeding, let us calculate the speed of the car.
This can be obtained as follow:
Distance (d) = 5 m
Convert 5 m to km
Recall:
1000 m = 1 km
5 m = 5/1000
5 m = 0.005 km
Time (t) = 0.2 sec.
Convert 0.2 sec to hour.
Recall:
3600 secs = 1 h
Therefore,
0.2 sec = 0.2/3600
0.2 sec = 5.56×10¯⁵ h
Thus,
Distance (d) = 0.005 km
Time (t) = 5.56×10¯⁵ h
Speed of car =?
Speed = Distance /time
Speed = 0.005/5.56×10¯⁵
Speed of the car = 90 km/h
Comparing the speed of the car (i.e 90 km/h) to the speed limit of the zone (i.e 60 km/h), we can see that the car is on a high speed since its speed (i.e 90 km/h) is higher than the speed limit of the zone (i.e 60 km/h).
Speed of the car = 90 km/h
Speed limit = 60 km/h
Difference = 90 – 60
Difference = 30 km/h
Therefore, the car is speeding by 30 km/h more compared to the speed limit.
