When you are in a car traveling at a steady velocity for a known amount of time, how can you determine how far you have traveled. (I need the formula and how you got it.)
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "If you go 1 km per hour for 1 hour ---> 1 km
\n" ); document.write( "1 km per hour means in an hour, you go 1 km
\n" ); document.write( "---------
\n" ); document.write( "distance = rate*time
\n" ); document.write( "distance (km) = r (km/hr) * t (hr)
\n" ); document.write( "Notice how the units cancel
\n" ); document.write( "
