What is the speed of the car? 5. It is known that a shark can travel at a speed of 5 m/s. How far can a shark go in 0 seconds? 6. How long does it take an airplane to fly 500 miles if it maintains a speed of 600 miles per hour? 7. A person can run 80 m in 68 s. At what speed are they running? 8. How far does a runner travel if they maintain a speed of 8.5 m/s for 40 s? Homework (From this point anytime you are assigned homework problems you must complete them on a separate sheet of paper stating the given information, formula used, set up and solution with units. In the set up make sure you eliminate units that cancel.) 9. A sportsman can develop a maximum speed of m/s when he is swimming in a pool. Calculate the time interval that is required to travel a distance of 5 m. 0. A polar bear walks a distance of 60 meters in 60 seconds. What was its speed?.
