Question

A chicken crosses a 7.50 m wide road at a constant speed of 0.367 m/s. How much time does it take to cross (in seconds)?

Answer 1

Time taken by it is 20.43 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Distance covered by the chicken, d = 7.5 m

Speed of the chicken, v = 0.367 m/s

We need to find the time taken to cross. Time taken by an object is given by :

`t=(d)/(v)`

`t=(7.5\ m)/(0.367\ m/s)`

t = 20.43 s

So, the time taken by it to cross the road is 20.43 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer 2

Answer;

= 20.436 seconds

Explanation;

Speed = Distance × time

Therefore;

Time = Distance/speed

Distance = 7.50 m, speed = 0.367 m/s

Time = 7.50/0.367

= 20.436 seconds
