Answer: 1.43 h
Step-by-step explanation:
Velocity is [tex]V[/tex] is defined as the change in position (displacement) [tex]d[/tex] of an object in a specific time [tex]t[/tex]:
[tex]V=\frac{d}{t}[/tex]
Where:
[tex]V=140.2159 mi/h[/tex] is the car's velocity
[tex]d=200 mi[/tex] is the distance the winner car traveled
[tex]t[/tex] is the time
Isolating [tex]t[/tex]:
[tex]t=\frac{d}{V}[/tex]
Solving with the given information:
[tex]t=\frac{200 mi}{140.2159 mi/h}[/tex]
[tex]t=1.426 h \approx 1.43 h[/tex] This is the winner's time
