Answer:

d = 27.03 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Constant Speed Motion

An object travels at constant speed if the ratio of the distance traveled by the time taken is constant.

Expressed in a simple equation, we have:


\displaystyle v=(d)/(t)

Where

v = Speed of the object

d = Distance traveled

t = Time taken to travel d.

From the equation above, we can solve for d:

d = v . t

It's required to find the distance traveled by someone walking at v=1.7 m/s for t=15.9 s. Substituting in the last equation:

d = 1.7 m/s * 15.9 s

d = 27.03 m
