Answer:
480cm or 0.48m
Explanation:
Given parameter:
Speed of the train = 8cm/s
time of travel = 1minute
Unknown:
Distance traveled = ?
Solution:
Speed is the rate of change of distance with time. This suggests that mathematically;
Speed = [tex]\frac{distance}{time}[/tex]
Distance covered = speed x time
Now to solve for the distance;
Convert the time to seconds;
60seconds = 1 minute
Distance covered = 8cm/s x 60s = 480cm
Distance covered is 480cm or 0.48m
