Best Answer

The climber's speed is 2 km per hour. Velocity, being a vector, requires a direction as well as the speed. The only information on the direction that is provided by the question is "going up", but I somehow doubt that any climber can travel 1 km straight up - in 30 minutes or even a longer time. In fact, there is probably nowhere that you can climb straight upwards for 1 km.

So, there is no proper answer for velocity.

Work Done = Force x distance moved in direction of force WD = 900N x 100m WD = 90000 J Time = WD/Power Time = 90,000J/88W Time = 1022.727 s (3dp) Time = 17.05 Minutes (2dp) Sorted.


How many minutes to travil 29 miles?

Velocity (or speed) = Distance ÷ Time : Time = Distance ÷ Velocity As the distance (29 miles) is known then the velocity needs to be determined. If walking this will be about 4 mph, cycling 15-20 mph, driving a car 30-70 mph. This will produce an answer measured in hours. This will then need to be converted to minutes. EXAMPLE : Say the journey is by bicycle travelling at an average speed of 16 mph. Then Time = 29/16 = 1.8125 hours. Multiply the answer by 60 to convert it to minutes. 1.8125 x 60 = 108 .75 minutes.

How long will it take you if you travel 278 miles by car?

This depends on how fast you are travelling. To calculate the time required to travel, you can use the following formula: time = distance / velocity For example, if you happened to be travelling at 50 mph, then: t = d / v t = 278 / 50 t = 5.56 hours (or 5 hours and 34 minutes)
