A cyclists rides her bike at 27 km per hour.What is the speed in kilometres per minute?How many kilometres will the cyclists travel in 2 minutes?
To convert the speed from kilometers per hour to meters per second, you need to use the conversion factor of 1 kilometer = 1000 meters and 1 hour = 3600 seconds.
First, let's convert the speed from kilometers per hour to meters per second:
Speed in meters per second = Speed in kilometers per hour * (1000 meters / 1 kilometer) * (1 hour / 3600 seconds)
Speed = 27 kilometers per hour * (1000 meters / 1 kilometer) * (1 hour / 3600 seconds)
Simplifying the conversion:
Speed = 27 * (1000 / 3600) meters per second
Now, calculate the speed:
Speed = 27 * 1000 / 3600 meters per second
Speed = 27,000 / 3600 meters per second
Speed = 7.5 meters per second
So, the speed of the cyclist is 7.5 meters per second.
Next, let's calculate how many meters the cyclist will travel in 10 seconds:
Distance = Speed * Time
Distance = 7.5 meters per second * 10 seconds
Distance = 75 meters
Therefore, the cyclist will travel 75 meters in 10 seconds.
27,000 m/hr
60 * 60 = 3,600 seconds/hr
27,000 / 3,600 = 7.5 m/sec
10 * 7.5 = _____ m/10 sec
