A model railroad train travels at a constant speed of 8 cm/s . How far would the train travel in one minute ?

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 =  

       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

d₁ = displacement of tern from arctic to antarctic = 11000 miles

d₂ = displacement of tern from antarctic to arctic =   - 11000 miles

d = total displacement for the journey

total displacement for the journey is given as

d = d₁ + d₂

d = 11000 + (-11000)

d = 0 miles

t₁ = time of travel from arctic to antarctic = 3 months = 3 x 30 days = 90 days

t₂ = time of travel from antarctic to arctic = 3 months = 3 x 30 days = 90 days

t = total time of travel

total time of travel is given as

t = t₁ + t₂

t = 90 + 90

t = 180 days

average velocity is given as

average velocity = total displacement/ total time

v = d/t

v = 0/180

v = 0 miles/day
