Question

A satellite travels along a horizontal straight path at a constant rate of 1/10 of the length of the path in 1 foot seconds at that rate how many seconds does it take the object to travel the entire length

Answer 1

The satellite will take 10 seconds to travel the entire length of the path.

Step-by-step explanation:

The satellite travels along a horizontal straight path at a constant rate of 1/10 of the length of the path in 1 foot seconds. To find the total length of the path, we can set up a proportion:

1 foot = 1/10 of the path length

x feet = the path length

Cross multiplying, we get:

x = 1 foot * 10

= 10 feet

So, the entire length of the path is 10 feet. Since the satellite travels 1/10 of the path length in 1 foot seconds, it will take 10 times that amount of time to travel the entire length:

1 foot * 10 = 10 foot seconds

Therefore, it will take the satellite 10 seconds to travel the entire length of the path.
