CALCULING

DISTANCE
MR. ROBY JAMES F. DAZA

You have seen this in Science?

d
s x t
Find the speed.

1. 120 kilometers in 1/4 hour

2. 840 words in 20 minutes

How is your last vacation with
your family?
Do you know how far did you
travel?
Jonathan bought a
new car. He drove
his car from Manila
to Baguio City at an
average speed of 65
kilometers per hour,
for a total of 4.5
WHAT IS DISTANCE?
Distance is the total length
between two positions or
location.
 A runner’s average speed is 8 m/s,
how far does he run in 25 seconds ?
d = 8 x 25 Distance =s x t
d = 200 meters
MUST give
UNITS
d
Because speed was in
METERS per second
s x t
A salesman travelled at an average speed of 50
km/h for 2 hours 30 mins. How far did he
travel?
D
Distance = Speed x Time
S T

= 50 x 2•5 2 hour 30 mins

= 125 km

Answer: He travelled 125 km

PRACTICE:
Identify the speed and time and then,
calculate the distance.

1.) 2 hours at 30km/h

2.) 7 hours at 65 kph
3.) ½ hour at 46 km/h
Calculate the distance.
1.) 1 ½ hours at 55 km/h
2.) 40 km/h for 2 hours
3.) 60 kph for 3.5 hours
4.) 75 mph for 5 hours
5.) 5 minutes at 20 m/m
