To find out how far you go when you jog at a speed of 2.5 meters per second for 15 seconds, we use the formula for distance traveled, which is:
[tex]\[ d = s \times t \][/tex]
where:
- [tex]\( d \)[/tex] is the distance,
- [tex]\( s \)[/tex] is the speed (velocity),
- [tex]\( t \)[/tex] is the time.
Given:
- Speed [tex]\( s = 2.5 \)[/tex] meters per second,
- Time [tex]\( t = 15 \)[/tex] seconds,
We can calculate the distance [tex]\( d \)[/tex] by multiplying the speed by the time:
[tex]\[ d = 2.5 \, \text{m/s} \times 15 \, \text{s} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ d = 37.5 \, \text{meters} \][/tex]
So, when you jog at a speed of 2.5 meters per second for 15 seconds, you travel a distance of 37.5 meters.
