A comet is traveling in outer space with a velocity of 2000 m/s. How long will it take to travel 300,000 meters?A) 2000 sB) 0.0006 sC) 6,000,000 s D) 150 s

Respuesta :

Given:

The velocity of the comet is,

[tex]v=2000\text{ m/s}[/tex]

The path length is,

[tex]d=300,000\text{ m}[/tex]

To find:

The time it takes to travel

Explanation:

The time to travel the distance by the comet is,

[tex]\begin{gathered} t=\frac{d}{v} \\ =\frac{300,000}{2000} \\ =150\text{ s} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the required time is 150 s.
