The velocity of a car traveling 20,000 m in 40 min is calculated as 8.33 m/s, when converting 40 minutes to 2,400 seconds and using distance divided by time. The provided options do not include this answer.
If a car travels 20,000 m in 40 min, to find the velocity in meters per second (m/s), we need to convert 40 minutes to seconds and then use the formula for velocity, which is distance divided by time. There are 60 seconds in a minute, so 40 minutes is 40 × 60 = 2,400 seconds. Using the formula for velocity:
V = distance / time
V = 20,000 m / 2,400 s = 8.33 m/s
