Answer:

45 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance can be determined from the expression of the speed of an object. The speed of an object is the rate of distance moved or covered to the time taken.

i.e speed =
(distance)/(time)

⇒ distance = speed x time

Given that: speed = 3 m/s and time = 15 s, then;

distance = 3 x 15

= 45

distance = 45 m

With the given information in the question, a distance of 45 m can be covered.
