Question

An object travels at a speed of 7500 cm/sec . how far will it travel in kilometers in one day

Answer 1

6480 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of the object is

v = 7500 cm/sec

We need to convert centimetres into kilometers and seconds into days. We have:

`1 cm = 1\cdot 10^5 km`

`1 s = (1)/(60\cdot 60 \cdot 24)d`

Using these conversion factors, we find:

`v=7500 (cm)/(s) \cdot 1\cdot 10^(-5) (km)/(cm)\cdot (24)(60)(60) (s)/(d)=6480 km`
