Answer:
Time, t = 7.4 secs.
Explanation:
Speed can be defined as distance covered per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity and as such it has magnitude but no direction.
Mathematically, speed is given by the equation;
[tex]Speed = \frac{distance}{time}[/tex] ....equation 1
[tex]Time = \frac{distance}{speed}[/tex] .....equation 2
Given the following data;
Speed = 0.5m/s
Distance = 3.7m
Substituting into equation 2;
[tex]Time = \frac{3.7}{0.5}[/tex]
Time, t = 7.4 secs.
