Answer:

v = 16,66 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the velocity of the train we must use the velocity formula for a uniform line movement:

v = x/t

Where x is the space and t is time.

replacing given values:

v = 180 km / 3 h

v = 60 km/h

to pass this value to international units:

v = 60 / 3,6 m/s

v = 16,66 m/s
