Question

Test (Speed, Velocity and Acceleration)

A dog can run as fast as 15 miles per hour for a short distance. If a dog ran at this speed 0.10 of an hour, how far would it run?

Answer 1

1.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Speed of dog, v = 15 mph

Time taken by the dog, t = 0.1 h

We need to find the distance travelled by the dog. We know that, distance is the product of speed and time. So,

d=vt

`d=15* 0.1\\\\d=1.5\ \text{miles}`

Hence, the dog will cover a distance of 1.5 miles.
