Question

A car is driving at 80 kilometers per hour. How far, in meters, does it travel in 2 seconds?

Answer 1

0.044km

Explanation:

First convert 2 seconds into hours...

3600secs = 1 hour

2 secs = ?

2 / 3600 = 0.00055 hours

Distance = speed × time taken

distance = 80km/h × 0.00055 h

distance = 0.044km

Answer 2

0.04 kilometers

Explanation:

in a hour, there are 60 minutes.

Divide 80 and 60.

Approximately 1.3

There are 60 seconds in a minute.

So divide 1.3 with 60.

Approximately 0.02.

Multiply 0.02 to find how much it travels in 2 seconds.

0.02 x 2=0.04

1 kilometer= 1000 meters.

0.04 x 1000= 40
