Question

I’m still really confused on how to actually calculate it

Answer 1

Question 6:

Given information:

Distance travelled by bus,

`s=10100\text{ m}`

Average velocity of the bus,

`v=5.6\text{ m/s}`

We need to find the time taken by bus to reach school. Let t be the time taken by bus to reach school. The velocity of the bus is given as,

`v=(s)/(t)`

The expression for the time is given as,

`t=(s)/(v)`

Substituting all known values,

`\begin{gathered} t=\frac{10100\text{ m}}{5.6\text{ m/s}} \\ \approx1804\text{ s} \\ \approx30\text{ min 4 sec} \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the bus required 30 min 4 sec to reach school.
