Hello

We first apply the data to the problem.

Data:

  • V = 216km/h
  • T = 30s
  • D = ?

Now, we convert the "km/h" to "m/s".

Conversion:

  • 216km/h • (1000m/1km) • (1h/3600s)
  • V = 60m/s

Then, we apply the formula that is.

Formula:

  • D = V • T

Finally we develop the problem.

Developing:

  • D = (60m/s) • (30s)
  • D = 1800m

The distance covered is 1800 meters.
