Question

It takes a car traveling at 18 m/s, 240 seconds to reach Chick-Fil-A from the school. Determine how far Chick-Fil-A is from the school.

Answer 1

The requested distance is 4320 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the formula for velocity in this movement at constant velocity (v), which is defined as the quotient between the distance covered divided the time it took:

`v=(distance)/(time)`

Since we know the velocity and the time, we can solve for the distance:

`\\eq v=(distance)/(time) \\18\,(m)/(s) = (distance)/(240\,\,s) \\distance=18\,*\,240\,\,m\\distance= 4320\,\,m`
