How much metres per second did the cyclist travel from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m? (*TIP: 2 hours = 7200 seconds, 2 km= 2000 m). Give the formula used, show your working and round off your answer to two decimal places. Don't forget the unit!

Answer:

[tex]Speed = 0.28m/s[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Your question seem incomplete; however, I'll assume the given tips as the usable parameters.

Given

Distance = 2km

Time = 2 hours (8am to 10am)

Required

Calculate speed (in metres per seconds)

Speed is calculated as follows:

[tex]Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}[/tex]

Substitute 2 km for distance and 2 hours for time.

[tex]Speed = \frac{2km}{2hr}[/tex]

Convert km to metres an hr to seconds.

[tex]Speed = \frac{2000m}{7200s}[/tex]

[tex]Speed = 0.277778 m/s[/tex]

[tex]Speed = 0.28m/s[/tex] (Approximated)

Hence, the cyclist travels at 0.28m/s
