Question

A baseball rolls along a flat parking lot in a straight line at a constant speed of 3.8 m/s. How

far will the baseball roll in 15s?

Answer 1

This is a uniform rectilinear motion (MRU) exercise.

To start solving this exercise, we obtain the following data:

DATA:

• V = 3.8 m/s
• D = ¿?
• T = 15 sec

To calculate the distance, multiply the speed by the time.

We apply the following formula: d = v * t

We clear our data in the formula:

`\bf{d=3.8\frac{m}{\\ot{s}}*15 \\ot{s} }`

`\bf{d=57 \ m}`

The baseball in 15 seconds will roll a distance of 57 meters.
