How many seconds will it take to get a seriously injured inmate to a medical center if the distance between the two points is 48 miles, assuming that the transport vehicle runs at a constant speed of 32mph and does not experience traffic or any delays?

He will require 5400 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The total distance he has to cover = 48 miles

The speed he is moving = 32 mph

To find :

Time in seconds = ?

Solution:

As given in the question that he is moving with a constant speed of 32 mph and he has to cover a distance of 48 miles at this speed so we will be using distance formula for finding the time taken by him

Formula is

Distance = speed * time

here we have to find time so

Time =

Putting in the values we get

Time =

Dividing it gives us

Time = 1.5 hours

As we need the answer in seconds and we know that

one hour has = 3600 seconds

so

Time = 1.5 * 3600 seconds

Time = 5400 seconds
