6 A Turkey Runs Across The Highway He Is Moving At A Speed Of 2ms It Takes Him5 Seconds What Distance Did The Turkey Run class=

Sagot :

Given,

The speed of the turkey, s=2 m/s

The time duration, t=5 s

The speed is given by the ratio of the distance traveled to the time period in which that distance is covered.

Thus

[tex]s=\frac{d}{t}[/tex]

Where d is the distance.

Thus, on substituting the known values in the above equation,

[tex]\begin{gathered} 2=\frac{d}{5} \\ \Rightarrow d=2\times5 \\ d=10\text{ m} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Thus the distance covered by the turkey is 10 m

Thus the correct answer is option 2.
