Question

How long would it take you to hop 30 meters based on this hopping speed?

a) 24 seconds
b) 28 seconds
c) 32 seconds

Answer 1

The hopping time for 30 meters cannot be determined without additional information about the hopping speed or a direct correlation between the provided times and distances to the 30-meter distance specified in the student's question.

Step-by-step explanation:

Without additional information about the hopping speed, we cannot determine the exact time it would take to hop 30 meters. However, if we refer to the provided information a., b., c., and d., we can see different times related to different distances, but none of these directly answer the question about the hopping time for 30 meters. For example, c mentions 34 seconds for a distance, but it’s associated with either 75 or 119 meters, not the 30 meters specified in the question. Therefore, to calculate the hopping time for 30 meters, we would need the specific speed at which someone is hopping or additional context linking the distances and times given in the examples to 30 meters.

Answer 2

To hop 30 meters based on the given hopping speed of 1.46 m/s over a 5-meter distance, it would take approximately 20 seconds (Option D).

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the time it would take to hop 30 meters based on the given hopping speed, we need to calculate the speed of the hop over a 5-meter distance and then use that speed to find the time for a 30-meter hop.

Given: Hopping Distance = 5 m, Time = 3.41 s, Speed = 1.46 m/s

The speed for the 5-meter trial is calculated by dividing the distance by the time:

Speed = Distance / Time

= 5 m / 3.41 s = 1.47 m/s

To find the time for the 30-meter hop, we divide the distance by the speed:

Time = Distance / Speed

= 30 m / 1.47 m/s = 20.41 seconds ≈ 20 seconds.

Thus, the correct option is D.
