Question

A racing car can complete a 900 m long lap in 15 s. What is the speed of the car?

Answer 1

The speed of the car is 60 m/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Distance covered by the racing car, d = 900 m

Time taken by the car, t = 15 s

Let v is the speed of the car. The speed of any object is equal to the distance covered divided by total time taken as :

`v=(d)/(t)`

`v=(900\ m)/(15\ s)`

v = 60 m/s

So, the speed of the car is 60 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
