If Jenn walks at a speed of 1.75 m/s for a total of 3.0 minutes, how far has she travelled?
d=v/t
d=1.75/3.0
d=v*t
d=1.75*3.0
Convert minutes to seconds because speed is 1.75 m/s.
60*3=180
d=v*t
d=1.75*180
Yes
1.75 m/s * 3 min * 60 s/min = 315 m
To find out how far Jenn has traveled, we can use the formula:
distance = speed × time
Given that Jenn walks at a speed of 1.75 m/s and for a total of 3.0 minutes, we need to convert the time from minutes to seconds because the speed is measured in meters per second.
To convert minutes to seconds, we multiply the value by 60:
3.0 minutes × 60 seconds/minute = 180 seconds
Now, we can substitute the values into the formula:
distance = 1.75 m/s × 180 seconds
Calculating this equation gives us:
distance = 315 meters
Therefore, Jenn has traveled a distance of 315 meters.
