A friend drives you to school and scares you by reading a text message while driving. If the car is going 57Km/hr (35 mph), and your friend spends 20 seconds reading the text, how far has the car gone?
-------------
57 km/hr = 57000 meters/3600 seconds = 95/6 m/sec
----
d = r*t
d = (95/6) * 20 meters
