To calculate distance when given velocity (speed) and time, you can use the simple formula from kinematics:

$\text{Distance} = \text{Velocity} \times \text{Time}$

Where:

• Distance is the total path length traveled (in units like meters, kilometers, etc.).
• Velocity is the speed in a given direction (in units like meters per second, kilometers per hour, etc.).
• Time is the duration over which the motion occurs (in units like seconds, minutes, hours, etc.).

Steps for Calculation:

1. Identify the velocity: Make sure you have the velocity in a consistent unit (e.g., meters per second (m/s) or kilometers per hour (km/h)).
2. Identify the time: Ensure that the time is also in the correct unit (e.g., seconds or hours).
3. Multiply the velocity by the time to get the distance.

Example:

If a car is traveling at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour (km/h) for 2 hours, the distance traveled would be:

$\text{Distance} = 60 \, \text{km/h} \times 2 \, \text{hours} = 120 \, \text{km}$

So, the car would travel 120 kilometers in 2 hours.

Tip:

Ensure the units for velocity and time are compatible before multiplying. If necessary, convert units (e.g., if velocity is in meters per second and time is in minutes, convert minutes to seconds).
