How far can a cyclist travel in 1.5 hours at a speed of 3 m / s?

To solve this problem, we need to apply the well-known simple path formula, which looks like this:

S = t * v.

In this case, we know both the time (1.5 hours) and the speed (3 meters per second).

All we need to do is translate the speed.

3 meters per second is 180 meters per minute (3 * 60).

180 meters per minute – 10800 meters per hour (180 * 60).

10,800 per hour is 16,200 meters per hour and a half. (10800 * 1.5)

Now let’s convert meters to kilometers.

16,200 meters is 16 kilometers, 200 meters.
