Question

Find the distance in km travelled by an aeroplane moving at 80mls for 5 mins
pls show steps:​

Answer 1

24km

Explanation:

distance = speed × time

speed = 80m/s

= 4.8km/min

time = 5mins

distance = 4.8 × 5

= 24km

Answer 2

The distance traveled by the aeroplane = 86,400 km

Explanation:

we know that speed = Distance ÷ Time

∴ Distance = Speed × Time

speed = 80 m/s ; Time = 5 mins

To convert m/sec in to km/hr , multiply by
`(18)/(5)`

i. e 1 m/sec =
`(18)/(5)` km/hr

speed = 80 ×
`(18)/(5)`

= 16 × 18 km/hr

= 288 km/hr

Time = 5 min

Distance = 288 × 5 × 60

= 86,400 km

The distance traveled by the aeroplane = 86,400 km
