Answer:

The covered distance was 1800 [m]

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must use the following formula of kinematics. It is important to make it clear that Branden's speed never changes during that time, or therefore the speed is constant.


x = x_(o)+v*t\\

where:

x = distance [m]

Xo = initial position = 0

v = velocity = 6 [m/s]

t = 300 [s]

Now replacing we have:

x = 0 + (6*300)

x = 1800 [m]
