Question

A car travels a total distance of 3.22911x10^2 m to the East in 6.7135x10^1 s. What is the speed of the car, in m/s with 4 significant figures?

Note: Your answer is assumed to be reduced to the highest power possible.
Your Answer: x10

Answer 1

Can you divide the first number by the second? That is all ther is to it.

Answer 2

The units of the speed that you get will be m/s. Then do the rounding to four figures.

That's a pretty slow car, by the way. Most runners go faster than that.

Answer 3

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

To find the speed of the car, we need to divide the distance traveled by the time taken.

First, let's convert the given distance to a regular number by multiplying it by 10 raised to the power of its exponent:
3.22911 x 10^2 m = 322.911 m

Similarly, let's convert the given time to a regular number:
6.7135 x 10^1 s = 67.135 s

Now, we can calculate the speed by dividing the distance traveled by the time taken:
Speed = Distance / Time = 322.911 m / 67.135 s = 4.812812099 m/s

To reduce this answer to 4 significant figures, we need to round it to the nearest fourth decimal place:
4.8128 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the car, in m/s with 4 significant figures, is 4.8128 m/s.
