You are playing frisbee golf and get a hole in one by throwing the disc 75.6 m. If the disc traveled at a constant speed of 12.5 m/s. How long did it take to hit the target

Respuesta :

Answer:

6.05 seconds

Explanation:

we know that

The speed is the ratio between the distance and the time

Let

s -----> the speed in meters per second

d ----> the distance in meters

t ---> the time in seconds

[tex]s=\frac{d}{t}[/tex]

In this problem we have

[tex]s=12.5\ \frac{m}{sec}[/tex]

[tex]d=75.6\ m[/tex]

substitute in the formula and solve for t

[tex]12.5=\frac{75.6}{t}[/tex]

Multiply by t both sides

[tex]12.5t=75.6[/tex]

Divide by 12.5 both sides

[tex]t=6.05\ sec[/tex]
