A vehicle moving with a speed of 18 km h–1 covers....m in 1 s.

In this question, we have to find the distance covered by a vehicle in 1 s moving with a particular speed.


We know that distance ‘x’ covered by a vehicle moving with a particular speed ‘v’


x = v × t ------------------- (1)


Where x = distance covered


v = speed of the vehicle


t = time taken to cover distance ‘x’


Here v = 18 km/h = 5 m/s


To convert km/h to m/s multiply the value of km/h with


t = 1 s


Substituting the values of ‘v’ &‘t’ in equation (1)


x = v × t


x = 5 ms-1 × 1 s


x = 5 m


The distance covered by the vehicle in 1s = 5m
