Answer:
s = 45000 m
Explanation:
The displacement covered by a person or an object traveling at a constant speed can be calculated by the following formula:
s = vt
where,
s = displacement = ?
v = velocity of car = (60 km/h)(1 h/3600 s)(1000 m/1 km) = 16.67 m/s
t = time taken = (45 min)(60 s/1 min) = 2700 s
Therefore,
s = (16.67 m/s)(2700 s)
s = 45000 m
