Question

a car comes to a complete stop after traveling at 56m/s if it takes 5200 milliseconds to stop how much distance did it cover

Answer 1

A car covers distance of 291.2 m if the car is travelled at speed of 56 m/s in 5200 milliseconds.

Explanation:

To find the distance covered by the car we use the the relationship between speed, time and distance is
`\text { speed }=\frac{\text { distance }}{\text { time }}`. Given, speed = 56 m/s and time = 5200 milliseconds. Covert milliseconds into seconds we can get by dividing it with 1000 =
`(5200)/(1000)` = 5.2 seconds.

Now,
`\text { speed }=\frac{\text { distance }}{\text { time }} 56=\frac{\text { distance }}{5.2} \text { distance }=56 * 5.2=291.2 \mathrm{m}`

Thus a car can travel 291.2 m if the car is travelled at speed of 56 m/s in 5200 milliseconds.
