A zebra runs across a field at a constant speed of 14 m/s. The zebra would run 112 m in 8 seconds.
Explanation:
According to Kinematics, the distance travelled is given by the product of speed and time. Here, the speed given as 14 m/s, and time is 8 seconds. Now, the equation is as follows,
[tex]\text {velocity} = \frac{\text {distance}(s)}{\text {time}(t)}[/tex]
The required term to find as per the question is distance, so rearranging the above equation, we get,
[tex]s = v e l o c i t y \times t[/tex]
By substituting the given values, we get, how much distance the zebra can run in time period of 8 seconds as,
Distance, [tex]s = 14 \times 8 = 112 m[/tex]
