Answer:

23.61m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Km/hr is a unit of expressing the speed of a body. Speed is the rate of change of distance with time. Also, the same unit is applicable for expressing the velocity of a body. But to find the velocity, we must emphasize the direction of motion of the body.

Given parameter:

85km/hr to cm/s

Note:

1000m =1km

3600s = 1hr

So;

85 x

Cancelling out km and hr;

= 85 x 0.278m/s

= 23.61m/s
