A plane travels with a uniform velocity of 3.399x10^1 m/s for a period of 2.267x10^0 seconds. What distance is travelled during this time, in meters
To find the distance traveled by the plane, we can use the formula:
Distance = Velocity × Time
Given:
Velocity = 3.399 × 10^1 m/s
Time = 2.267 × 10^0 seconds
Substitute the given values into the formula:
Distance = (3.399 × 10^1 m/s) × (2.267 × 10^0 seconds)
To multiply numbers in scientific notation, multiply the significant digits and add the exponents:
Distance = (3.399 × 2.267) × (10^1 × 10^0) m
Distance = 7.707633 × 10^1 m
So, the distance traveled by the plane during this time is approximately 7.707633 × 10^1 meters.
