Answer:

16.66 meters

Explanation:

We can start by converting the speed of the car from kilometers per hour to meters per second, since the time given is in seconds.

1 kilometer = 1000 meters

1 hour = 3600 seconds

Therefore, the speed of the car in meters per second is:

30 km/hour = (30 x 1000 meters) / (3600 seconds) = 8.33 meters/second (rounded to 2 decimal places)

Now that we know the speed of the car in meters per second, we can use the formula for distance traveled:

distance = speed x time

Substituting the values we have:

distance = 8.33 meters/second x 2 seconds = 16.66 meters (rounded to 2 decimal places)

Therefore, the car travels 16.66 meters in 2 seconds at a speed of 30 km/hour.
