Answer:

1,650 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by converting the velocity to m/s. There are 3600 seconds in a minute and 1000 meters in a kilometer, so 90km/hr=25m/s. Half a minute is 30 seconds, so:


d=v_ot+(1)/(2)at^2 \\\\d=(25)(30)+(1)/(2)(2)(30)^2 \\\\d=750+900=1650m

Hope this helps!
