If it takes ashley 3 seconds to run from the batters box to first base at an average speed of 6.5 meters per second, what is the distance she covers in that time?

d = 19.5 m

Explanation:

Conceptual analysis

The average speed is defined as the relationship between the displacement that a body made and the total time it took to perform it.

The formula that will allow you to calculate the average speed is:

v= d/t Formula (1)

v= average speed measured in m/s

d=  displacement measured in m.

t= time interval measured in s.

Known data

v=  6.5 m/s

t= 3 s

Problem development

We replace data in the formula (1) to calculate the distance (d) :

v= d/t

6.5 m/s = d / 3 s

(6.5 m/s)*( 3 s ) = d

d = 19.5 m

jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system, having a mass and radius that are respectively, 318 and 11.2 times that of earth. suppose that an object falls from rest near the surface of each planet and that the acceleration due to gravity remains constant during the fall. each object falls the same distance before striking the ground. determine the ratio of the time of fall on jupiter to that on earth.
