A driver looks at a phone for 5 seconds while driving at 54 km/h. How far does the car travel in that time?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. 75 m
- Step 1: 54 km/h = 15 m/s.
- Step 2: Distance = 15 x 5 = 75 m, traveled without watching the road.
Answer
75 m.
Why not the others: The speed has to be converted to meters per second before multiplying by the time.
