Answer:

The street is 133.7 m long.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of the cat, v = 3.5 m/s

It took her 38.2 s to run the entire length of the street she lives on.

We need to find the length of the street. It means we need to find the distance covered by cat. Speed of cat is given by :


v=(d)/(t)\\\\d=vt\\\\d=3.5* 38.2\\\\d=133.7\ m

So, the street is 133.7 m long.
