Question

It took the bike messenger 36 minutes to ride from the school to
the blue house. If they are 2160 meters apart, what was the
messenger's velocity?
a. 1.2 m/s
b. 1 m/s south
c. 2 m/s south
d. 1.2 m/s south

Answer 1

I believe the answer is B

There’s 60 seconds in 1 minute
60(seconds) x 36 (minutes)=2,160 seconds

2,160 (meters) / 2,160 (seconds) =

1 meter/per second
