Answer:

v = 21.52 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The distance covered by the car, d = 6200 km

Time taken by the car, t = 80 hours

We need to find the speed of the car. The speed of an object is given by total distance dividing total time.


v=(6200* 10^3\ m)/(80* 3600)\\\\v=21.52\ m/s

So, the speed of the car is 21.52 m/s.
