Answer to Question #132674 in Physics for Aman

Question

Q14. A car is moving with a speed of 50m/s in 10 sec. Another car moving with a speed of 50 m/s it takes
15 sec. Calculate and find out which covers more distance and how much?

Answer 1

By definition of the velocity, the first car will cover the following distance:

$$d_1 = v_1 t_1 = 50m/s\cdot 10s = 500m$$

Similarly, the second car will cover the following distance:

$$d_2 = v_2 t_2 = 50m/s\cdot 15s = 750m$$

Answer. The second car covers 250 meters more distance.
