Time and Distance

Time and Distance

Relation between Time, Speed and Distance
Distance covered, time and speed are related by
Time = ...(i)
Speed = ...(ii)
Distance = Speed × Time ...(iii)

• Distance is measured in metres, kilometres and miles.
• Time in hours, minutes and seconds.
• Speed in km/h, miles/h and m/s.

1. To convert speed of an object from km/h to m/s multiply the speed by . 5/18
2. To convert speed of an object from m/s to km/h, multiply the speed by . 18/5
Average Speed
It is the ratio of total distance covered to total time of journey.
Average Speed =
