If you leave your home at noon, and the speed limit is 50 km/h on the highway, what is the approximate time will you get to Atlantic City if Atlantic City is 150 km away? (obeying the speed limit of course)

Answer:

The time you will get to Atlantic City is 3 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

speed limit, v = 50 km/h

distance to be traveled, d = 150km

The time of the motion is given as;

time = distance / speed

t = (150 km) / (50 km/h)

t = 3 hours

Thus, if you leave your home at noon, the time you will get to Atlantic City is given as;

time to get home = 12 pm + 3hours = 3 pm

Therefore, the time you will get to Atlantic City is 3 pm
