Question

If a motorbike covers 5 km in 10 minutes how far does it move in 1 sec (in step to step)

with formulas of rest and motion ​

Answer 1

0.0083km or 8.3m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance = 5km

Time = 10min

Unknown:

Distance moved in 1sec = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, let us first find the speed of the motorbike.

Speed =
`(distance)/(time)`

Speed =
`(5)/(10)` = 0.5km/min

So;

In 1sec:

60 sec = 1 min

1 sec =
`(1)/(60)`min

Distance moved in 1sec = speed x time

Distance moved = 0.5km/min x
`(1)/(60)`min = 0.0083km or 8.3m
