Sure, let's solve this step-by-step using the given information.
1. Identify the variables:
- The speed [tex]\( s \)[/tex] of the car is 51 meters per second (m/s).
- The time [tex]\( t \)[/tex] the car travels is 13 seconds.
2. Recall the formula for distance:
The formula for calculating distance [tex]\( d \)[/tex] when speed and time are known is:
[tex]\[
d = s \times t
\][/tex]
3. Plug in the values into the formula:
- Speed [tex]\( s \)[/tex] = 51 m/s
- Time [tex]\( t \)[/tex] = 13 seconds
Substituting these values into the formula gives:
[tex]\[
d = 51 \times 13
\][/tex]
4. Calculate the distance:
[tex]\[
d = 51 \times 13 = 663 \text{ meters}
\][/tex]
So, the car travels 663 meters.
Thus, the correct answer is:
A. 663 m
