How do you calculate the formula for distance?
== I'm pretty sure the formula for distance is: D== rt (Distance= rate x time) == The formula for distance is: speed x time.
If buck drove 220 miles in five hours the what is his average rate of speed?
To calculate the average speed you divide the distance by the time.
Speed equals time divided by distance?
Distance = Rate x Time Rate = Distance/Time, not Time/Distance
How long would it take you to arrive at your destination if it was 60 miles away and your speed was 40 mph?
Since rate x time= distance and you want to know the time the journey will take, divide the distance by the rate of travel to calculate the time required. In this case 60/40=3/2 of an hour or 1 and 1/2 hours.
What is the total distance traveled divided by total time elapsed?
the rate of speed
How can you calculate the distance traveled if we know rate and time?
Multiply the quantities you know. Distance = (rate) x (time)
How can you calculate the time it takes to travel if you know distance and rate?
Time equals distance divided by rate.
How can we calculate the time it takes to travel if we know distance and rate?
Use a stopwatch.
How can you calculate speed of pitch if you only know distance?
You can find the speed (or rate) of the pitch by finding out the time it took to go that distance (ex. time from Point A to Point B). You use the distance formula, but slightly different. Instead of D=RT (D= Distance, R= Rate, T=Time) you would use R=D/T (rate equals distance divided by time)
How do you calculate the formula for distance?
== I'm pretty sure the formula for distance is: D== rt (Distance= rate x time) == The formula for distance is: speed x time.
What is The total distance traveled in a time interval?
The equation is:Distance = Rate X TimeTo simplify, if we are given the rate at which someone is traveling and the time it takes to travel, we can then calculate the total distance traveled.Step 2 Consider the following. A car travels at 60mph and drives for 2 hours. We need to calculate the distance the car traveled.Distance = Rate X TimeDistance = 60mph X 2 hoursDistance = 120 miles
What is the distance by 3 hours at a rate 69?
we know that , speed=distance/time distance =69 * 3 =207 km
How do you calculate the length of time it takes for a rocket ship to circle the earth?
Distance = (Rate) x (Time) or in this case: Time = Distance / Rate So figure out how far the rocket has to travel (distance) and at what speed (rate) and divide the two numbers.
If buck drove 220 miles in five hours the what is his average rate of speed?
To calculate the average speed you divide the distance by the time.
Could you find the rate of a speed if you know the distance and time spent traveled?
yes; distance divided by time
Why do you need to calculate velocity instead of speed?
Speed and Velocity are two different things . Velocity- "the rate at which an object changes its position." Speed- "How fast an object is moving". To calculate speed and velocity, you first need to calculate distance and time. Velocity is considered to be a more logical term
Could you find the distance somebody travels if you know the rate of speed?
No, you would also need to know the time spent travelled. Distance equals rate multiplied by time, or D=RT.
