After turning the light on, hoy see a cockroach quickly scurry along the floor and under the refrigerator within a 5 second period of time. How far did the cockroach travel if its speed was 1.25 m/s?
To calculate the distance the cockroach traveled, we can use the formula:
Distance = Speed x Time
In this case, the speed of the cockroach is given as 1.25 m/s, and the time it took to scurry under the refrigerator is 5 seconds.
Therefore, the distance traveled by the cockroach can be calculated as:
Distance = 1.25 m/s x 5 s
Distance = 6.25 meters
So, the cockroach traveled a distance of 6.25 meters.
