At what time would the velocity reach 60.00 km/hr?

It will never travel at 60.00 km/hr. It travels at a different constant rate.

O 10.00 seconds

10 00 seconds

100.00 seconds

Answer:

10 seconds

Explanation:

The question is missing the figure.

See the attached figure.

The graph shows the velocity (y-axis) versus the time (x-axis).

In order to find when the magnitude of the velocity reaches 60 km/hr, we should find the time t (x-coordinate) at which the velocity (y-coordinate) is 60 km/hr

By looking at the graph, we see that this occurs when t = 10 seconds

==============================================================

Another solution:

The relation between the velocity(y) and time(x) has the following equation as the line pass through (0,0):

y = mx

where m is the slope of the line

Using the figure pick a point to find the slope for example (2,12)

∴ m = 12/2 = 6

When the velocity reach 60 km/hr

∴ x = y/m = 60/6 = 10

∴ Time = 10 seconds

At what time would the velocity reach 60.00 km/hr? It will never travel at 60.00 km-example-1
