1) In 1 hour it travels 90km then in 2 hours it’s 180km traveled.

2) it travels 90km in 1 hour
There are 3600 seconds (60x60)
In an hour.

Therefore 90km/3600seconds= 0.025km or 25 metres

3) 10km/90km = 0.11~
0.11 x 60 minutes = 6.67 minutes ~

Answer:

1) 180 km

2) 25 m

3) 6 min 40 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Distance = rate × time

d = (90 km/hr) × (2 hr)

d = 180 km

2) Convert km/hr to m/s.

1 km = 1000 m, and 1 hr = 3600 s.

90 km/hr × (1000 m / 1 km) × (1 hr / 3600 s) = 25 m/s

So the truck moves 25 meters per second.

3) Distance = rate × time

10 km = (90 km/hr) × t

t = 1/9 hr

t = 6 min 40 sec
