Answer:

0.5 hours or 1800 seconds.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Distance = 24km

Speed = 48.2 km/h

To find the time;

Time = distance/speed

Time = 24/48.2

Time = 0.50 hours

Converting the time to seconds;

1 hour = 3600 seconds

0.5 hour = 1800 seconds

Therefore, it would take 1800 seconds or 0.5 hours for the note to reach Tommy's crush.

Using the speed - distance relationship, it will take the pigeon about 29.88 minutes to reach Tommy's crush.

Given the Parameters :

  • Speed of pigeon = 48.2 km/hr

  • Distance to be covered = 24 km

Recall the Time taken relation :

  • Time taken = (Distance ÷ Speed)

Time taken = (24 ÷ 48.2) = 0.4979253 hours

Converting to minutes :

0.4979253 × 60 = 29.875 minutes

Therefore, it will take the pigeon about 29.88 minutes to reach her destination.
