Question
a vehicle's odometer is at 22 647 km at the start of a trip and 23 209 km at the end if the trip took 4.0 h what was the vehicles average speed in m/s
Answers
GPT 3.5
To find the average speed of the vehicle in m/s, we need to first convert the distance traveled from km to meters.
Distance traveled = 23,209 km - 22,647 km = 562 km = 562,000 meters
Next, we need to convert the time taken from hours to seconds:
Time taken = 4.0 hours = 4.0 x 3600 seconds = 14,400 seconds
Now, we can calculate the average speed:
Average speed = Distance / Time
Average speed = 562,000 meters / 14,400 seconds
Average speed ≈ 39.03 m/s
Therefore, the vehicle's average speed during the trip was approximately 39.03 m/s.
Distance traveled = 23,209 km - 22,647 km = 562 km = 562,000 meters
Next, we need to convert the time taken from hours to seconds:
Time taken = 4.0 hours = 4.0 x 3600 seconds = 14,400 seconds
Now, we can calculate the average speed:
Average speed = Distance / Time
Average speed = 562,000 meters / 14,400 seconds
Average speed ≈ 39.03 m/s
Therefore, the vehicle's average speed during the trip was approximately 39.03 m/s.
