AN OSTRICH CAN RUN AT SPEEDS OF UP YO 72 KM/H. HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE AN OSTRICH TO RUN 1.5KM AT HIS TOP SPEED?

Time = Distance/Speed

If speed is in km/h and Distance in km, the answer will be in hours.

To find out how long it will take an ostrich to run 1.5 km at its top speed, we need to divide the distance (1.5 km) by the speed (72 km/h). This will give us the time it takes.

Mathematically, the formula to calculate time is:

Time = Distance / Speed

Plugging in the values, we have:

Time = 1.5 km / 72 km/h

Now, let's solve this equation to find the answer:

Time = 0.02083 hours

To convert this to a more commonly used unit of time, we can multiply by 60 to get the time in minutes:

Time = 0.02083 hours * 60 minutes/hour

Time β‰ˆ 1.25 minutes

Therefore, it will take an ostrich approximately 1.25 minutes to run 1.5 km at its top speed of 72 km/h.
