Question

It takes 3hr and 10 min to ride the railway to the top of pike peak in Colorado the tram will travel a total distance of 14.32 km what the speed of the train

Answer 1

Given:

Time taken, t = 3 hr and 10 min

Distance covered = 14.32 km

Let's find the speed of the train.

To find the speed of the train, apply the formula:

$\text{speed}=\frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}}$

Convert the time to hour.

Where:

1 hour = 60 minutes

Thus, we have:

$\text{Time = 3}\frac{10}{60}=3\frac{1}{6}=3.17\text{ hours}$

To find the speed, we have:

$\text{speed}=\frac{14.32\operatorname{km}}{3.17}=4.52\operatorname{km}\text{ /h}$

Therefore, the speed of the train is 4.52 kilometers per hour.

ANSWER:

4.52 km/h
