Question 258457: You drive a car from Milwaukee to Chicago in 95 min. What is its velocity in km/hr and speed in m/s? Were you speeding? Use 150km as your distance Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! You drive a car from Milwaukee to Chicago in 95 min. What is its velocity in km/hr
150 km/(95/60) hr = 9000/95 kph
=~ 94.74 km/hr
----------------
and speed in m/s?
(150 km * 1000m/km)/(95 min * 60 sec/min)
= 150000/5700 m/sec
=~ 26.3 meters/sec
--------------
Were you speeding? Use 150km as your distance
I'm always speeding
-------------
Why is the km/hr called a velocity, and the meters/sec a speed?
