1. A biker travels at an average speed of 11.1 m/s along a 8900 m
straight segment of a bike path. How much time does the biker
take to travel this segment?

Answer :

Lanuel

Answer:

Time = 801.802 secs.

Explanation:

Speed can be defined as the rate of change in the magnitude of distance with respect to time. It is a scalar quantity because it only has magnitude but no direction.

Given the following data;

Average speed = 11.1m/s

Time =?

Distance = 8900m

[tex]Speed (S) = \frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

[tex]S = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]

Making time (t) the subject of formula, we have;

[tex]Time (t) = \frac{d}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Time (t) = \frac{8900}{11.1}[/tex]

Time = 801.802 secs.

Hence, the time the biker takes to cover the segment is 801.802 seconds.
