Question

A car is traveling 7 km in 125 seconds. Calculate the speed in meters per second (m/s)

Answer 1

Answer 56m/s

Explanation:

7m x 1000

= 7000KM

7000KM : 125

= 56 m/s

Answer 2

The speed of the car is 56 meter per second.

Explanation:

Given : A car is traveling 7 km in 125 seconds.

To find : Calculate the speed in meters per second (m/s).

Solution :

The distance covered by car is 7 km.

Convert km into m,

1 km = 1000 m

7 km = 7000 m.

The time taken by car is 125 seconds.

The formula to find speed is

`\text{Speed}=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}`

`\text{Speed}=(7000)/(125)`

`\text{Speed}=56\ m/s`

Therefore, The speed of the car is 56 meter per second.
