Question

You are jogging for one hour at a speed of 5 m/s and for the final 200 m you decide to increase your velocity to 11 m/s. Assuming you were able to do so instantaneously. Once you reach that speed how long it will take to cover 200m?

Answer 1

Answer:

$t=18.18s$

Explanation:

From the exercise we know that the person change its initial velocity from 5m/s to 11 m/s for 200m

According to the formula:

$v=\frac{x}{t}$

If we want to know how much time does it take to cover 200 m at 11 m/s we need to calculate the following formula:

$t=\frac{x}{v}=\frac{200m}{11m/s}=18.18s$
