Question

A car travels 60miles/hr for 3 hours, calculate the distance it will travel

Answer 1

Given data:

* The velocity of the car is v = 60 miles/hr.

* The time taken by the car is t = 3 hr.

Solution:

The distance traveled in terms of the velocity and time is,

$\begin{gathered} v=\frac{d}{t} \\ d=v\times t \end{gathered}$

Substituting the known values,

$\begin{gathered} d=60\times3 \\ d=180\text{ miles} \end{gathered}$

Thus, the distance traveled by car is 180 miles.
