Question

David is skateboarding at a speed of 2.5 m/s. How far can he travel on his skateboard in 100 seconds?

\large speed=\frac{distance}{time}

a
40 m
b
250 m
c
0.025 m
d
102.5 m

Answer 1

To find out how far David can travel while skateboarding, we can use the formula:

\[
\text{distance} = \text{speed} \times \text{time}
\]

Given:
- Speed = 2.5 m/s
- Time = 100 seconds

Now, substituting the values into the formula:

\[
\text{distance} = 2.5 \, \text{m/s} \times 100 \, \text{s}
\]
\[
\text{distance} = 250 \, \text{m}
\]

The correct answer is:

**b) 250 m**
