What is the average distance a person can see?

The average distance depends on the amount of visibility. Telescope

What is the average distance for a person to move house?

depends where you're moving.


When a person moves a distance of 3km towards East then 2km towards North and 3.5km towards East find a distance covered by person and displacement?

The total distance covered by the person is ( 3 km + 2 km + 3.5 km = 8.5 km ). The displacement of the person is the straight-line distance from the initial point to the final point, which can be calculated using Pythagoras' theorem as ( \sqrt{(3 km)^2 + (2 km + 3.5 km)^2} \approx 5.7 km ).


Select the solution below that would produce an average velocity of zero?

A person walks forward for 2 hours and then walks back for 2 hours, ending up at the same position where they started. Their average velocity would be zero since they covered the same distance in each direction.


If a person walked 1.60 km in 30 minutes what is the average speed?

distance=speed x timeso speed = distance/time


How long would it take to walk between Argentina and Mexico for an average person?

The distance between Buenos Aires and Mexico City are 7,380 kilometers (4,587 miles). The average person walks at a speed of 5 kilometers (3 miles) an hour. Without stopping, the average person would take 63 days to walk such distance.


How far can a person run in 15 minutes if they run an average speed of 6 km?

Answer: The person runs for 15 minutes = a quarter hour. So distance covered = a quarter of 6 km = 1.5 km. Answer: In general, you use the formula distance = speed x time. For this, you have to convert the units to compatible units (see the other answer, above). Also, please note that "6 km" is NOT a speed.


If a person ride there bike an average of 60 miles per hour. how many hours did that person ride?

It depends on the distance travelled, If the person had travelled 120 miles the it would be 2 hours. Time = Distance/Speed


Can a person's average speed be determined if you know the total distance traveled and the total time?

yes


If person moves a distance of 3 km towards east then 2 km towards north and then 3.5 km towards east find distance covered by the person?

Total eastward distance covered = 6.5 km Total northward distance covered = 2 km The scalar distance covered by the person and his shoes is 8.5 km. The magnitude of his displacement vector, i.e. the distance of his final location with respect to his initial location, is sqrt[ (6.5)2 + (2)2 ] = sqrt( 42.25 + 4 ) = sqrt( 46.25 ) = 6.8 km (rounded) Note: Technically, that 6.8 km applies only near the equator. For this simple calculation, we handled 'east' and 'north' as if they were orthogonal coordinates on a cartesian plane. The truth is something different on the surface of a sphere, and the farther you get from the equator, the more different the truth becomes. So we know for sure that 6.8 km is not precisely correct. We don't know how incorrect it is, we think it's probably close, and finally, we believe the questioner doesn't care.
