Answer:
Time taken by the crab, t = 17.54 years.
Explanation:
It is given that,
Speed of a crab, v = 5.70 km/yr
Distance travelled by the crab, d = 100 km
We need to find the time taken by the crab to cover this much distance. Time taken is given by :
[tex]t=\dfrac{d}{v}[/tex]
[tex]t=\dfrac{100\ km}{5.70\ km/yr}[/tex]
t = 17.54 years
So, the time taken by the crab is 17.54 years. Hence, this is the required solution.
The time taken is 17.5 years.
Average speed is the ratio of distance traveled to time.
From the question we have the following parameters;
Average speed of the crab: 5.70km/yr
Distance traveled by the crab: 100km
Average speed of the crab = [tex]\frac{Distance}{Time}[/tex]
Time taken = [tex]\frac{Distance}{Average speed}[/tex]
Time taken = [tex]\frac{100 Km}{5.70km/yr}[/tex]
Time taken = 17.5 years
