Answer: The time taken by jet plane to reach Los Angeles from Chicago is 3.5 hours
Explanation:
Speed is defined as the rate at which an object moves with respect to time.
To calculate the time taken for the given speed, we use the equation:
[tex]s=\frac{d}{t}[/tex]
where,
s = speed of the jet plane = 800 km/hr
d = distance traveled = 2800 km
t = time taken by jet plane = ?
Putting values in above equation, we get:
[tex]800km/hr=\frac{2800km}{t}\\\\t=\frac{2800km}{800km/hr}=3.5hr[/tex]
Hence, the time taken by jet plane to reach Los Angeles from Chicago is 3.5 hours
