Rate of change in position, or speed, is equal to distance traveled divided by time. To solve for time, divide the distance traveled by the rate. For example, if Cole drives his car 45 km per hour and travels a total of 225 km, then he traveled for 225/45 = 5 hours.

Distance = Speed × time. Units. Time : Seconds, minutes, hours. Distance : meter, kilometer. Speed : km/ hr, m /sec. Conversion of Units: 1 km/hr = 5/18 metre/second. 1 metre/second = 18/5 km/hr. 1 Km/hr = 5/8 mile/hr. 1 mile/hr = 22/15 foot/second. Example 1: A scooter travels at the speed of 45 kmph.
Draw a formula triangle for speed, distance and time. Working clockwise from the top, enter D for distance, T for time and S for speed. Use the formula triangle to work out the correct...
Distance, Rate, and Time. For an object moving at a uniform (constant) rate, the distance traveled, the elapsed time, and the rate are related by the formula [latex]d=rt[/latex] where [latex]d=[/latex] distance, [latex]r=[/latex] rate, and [latex]t=[/latex] time.
We're going to look at position versus time graphs, and use them in order to figure out displacement and distance traveled. So this first question says, a 3.2 kilogram iguana runs back and forth along the ground.
Here's an example of the difference: A tennis player hits a ball to a wall 5 meters away, and the ball bounces back the same distance. If the reference point is where the tennis player is standing, the position-vs.-time graph for the ball would start at 0, move up to 5 meters when the ball hits the wall, then drop back down to 0 on the vertical ...
The equation for calculating distance is \[\mbox{Distance} = \mbox{Speed} \times \mbox{Time},\] but we won't arrive at the correct answer if we just multiply 8 and 45 together, as the answer would be in units of \(\mbox{miles} \times \mbox{minute} / \mbox{hour}\).
