Answer: 11.25 cm .

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that ,
\text{Speed}=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Tme}}

So,
\text{Distance= Speed }*\text{Time}

As per given, The speed of the toy car = .05 m/s.

If he pushes the car for 2.25 seconds.

Then, the distance covered by the car = (0.05 ) × 2.25 meters

= 0.1125 meters

Since 1 m = 100 cm

So, 0.1125 meters = 0.1125 × 100 cm = 11.25 cm

Hence, the car will go 11.25 cm .
