Question

A plane travels 1743 KM in 2 hours 30 minutes. How fast was the plane traveling?

Answer 1

`v=697.2km/h`

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since the velocity is computed via the division of the distance traveled by the elapsed time:

`V=(d)/(t)`

The distance is clearly 1743 km and the time is:

`t=2h+30min*(1h)/(60min) =2.5h`

Thus, the velocity turns out:

`v=(1743km)/(2.5h)\\ \\v=697.2km/h`

Which is a typical velocity for a plane to allow it be stable when flying.

Best regards.
