6. Complete Activity 7.6 (Page 75). Measure the time it takes you to walk from your house to your bus stop or the school. If you consider that your average walking speed is 4 km h–1, estimate the distance of the bus stop or school from your house.
Answer:
Using a watch, the time taken to walk from my house to the bus stop was found to be 5 minutes or (60 × 5) = 300 seconds.
My average walking speed is 4 km h–1 = 4000/3600 ms-1 = 1.11 ms-1.
Distance = Speed × Time = 1.11 ms-1 × 300 s = 333 m = 0.333 km.
