A vehicle moving with a speed of 18 km h–1 covers....m in 1 s.
In this question, we have to find the distance covered by a vehicle in 1 s moving with a particular speed.
We know that distance ‘x’ covered by a vehicle moving with a particular speed ‘v’
x = v × t ------------------- (1)
Where x = distance covered
v = speed of the vehicle
t = time taken to cover distance ‘x’
Here v = 18 km/h = 5 m/s
To convert km/h to m/s multiply the value of km/h with
t = 1 s
Substituting the values of ‘v’ &‘t’ in equation (1)
x = v × t
x = 5 ms-1 × 1 s
x = 5 m
The distance covered by the vehicle in 1s = 5m
