Charlotte is driving at 57.4 mi/h and receives a text message. She looks down at her phone and takes her eyes off the road for 4.96 s. How far has Charlotte traveled in feet during this time

418.18 feet

Explanation:

Applying,

v = d/t Equation 1

Where v = velocity, d = distance, t = time.

make d the subeject of the equation

d = vt Equation 2

From the question,

Given: v = 57.4 mi/h, t = 4.96 s = (4.96/3600) h = 1.38×10⁻³ h

Substitute these values into equation 2

d = (57.4×1.38×10⁻³)

d = 0.0792 mi

Converting from miles to feet

d = (0.0792×5280) feet

d = 418.18 feet

v=ir = 3x15 =45 v
