What is the length of the bridge if the car passed it in 5 minutes? Vehicle speed is 60 km per hour.

v = 60 km / h – car speed;
t = 5 min – movement time;
S =? – the length of the bridge.
Under the conditions of the problem, the speed is given in km / h, and the time in minutes. To solve the problem, let’s convert the time into hours:
t = 5/60 = 1/12 h.
Let’s find how far the car will travel in time t. This will be the length of the bridge:
S = v * t = 60 * 1/12 = 5 km.
Answer: the length of the bridge through which the car was traveling is 5 kilometers.
