Time to slide down : 2.4 s
Further explanation
Given
total length of slide = 12 m
Randy's speed = 5 m/s
Required
time to slide down
Solution
Randy's motion can be said to be a straight, regular motion at a constant speed
Can be formulated
d = v x t
d = distance, m
v = velocity, m / s
t = time, s
we plug in the known values in the formula
[tex]\tt t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{12~m}{5~m/s}\\\\t=2.4~s[/tex]
