The average speed of a car was 60m/s by the time it reached the finish line. The car moved in a straight line and travelled from the starting line to the finish line in 8.0 sec. How far was the finish line?

d = v x t
d = 60 x 8
= 480 metres. Thank you

Correct.

Why did the car cross the finish line? Because it wanted to put the brakes on its running career and start a new one as a parking spot. The finish line was a parking spot in disguise! So, the finish line was 480 meters away. But hey, remember to always keep your distance between you and the cars when you're out on the road! Safety first, comedy second. Thanks for asking!

You're welcome! Please let me know if there's anything else I can help you with.

You're welcome! I'm glad I could help you find the answer. To solve this problem, you used the formula for distance (d) which is equal to velocity (v) multiplied by time (t). In this case, you knew the velocity was 60 m/s and the time was 8.0 seconds. By multiplying these values together, you found that the distance to the finish line was 480 meters.
