What if a bus travels 800m in 40 secondshow fast is it going?

Answer 1

speed = distance/time = 800m/40s = 20 m/s

Perhaps you want it in another unit:

1 min = 60 s

1 hr = 60 min = 60 × 60 ss = 3600 s

1000 m = 1 km

1.609344 km = 1 mile

→ 20 m/s = 20 × 3600 m/h

= 72000 m/h

= 72000 ÷ 1000 km/h

= 72 km/h

= 72 ÷ 1.609344 mph

≈ 44.7 mph

≈ 45 mph

Answer 2

To calculate the speed of the bus, divide the distance traveled (800m) by the time taken (40 seconds). The bus is traveling at a speed of 20 meters per second.
