To determine the distance traveled by a bicycle traveling at a certain speed in a given time, we can use the formula:
Distance = Speed × Time
Given that the bicycle is traveling at 13 mph and the time is 47 seconds, we need to convert the speed from mph to feet per second before applying the formula.
1 mile = 5280 feet 1 hour = 3600 seconds
Converting 13 mph to feet per second:
13 mph = (13 * 5280) / 3600 feet per second ≈ 19.067 feet per second
Now we can calculate the distance traveled:
Distance = Speed × Time Distance = 19.067 feet per second × 47 seconds ≈ 896.749 feet
Therefore, a bicycle traveling at 13 mph will go approximately 896.749 feet in 47 seconds.
