In this case, we'll have to carry out several steps to find the solution.
Step 01:
Data:
Car:
velocity = 69 miles / hour
time = 5 seconds
Step 02:
distance:
[tex]dis\tan ce\text{ = }\frac{69\text{ miles}}{hour}\cdot5\sec \cdot(\frac{1\text{ hour}}{3600\text{ sec}})\cdot(\frac{5280ft}{1\text{miles}})[/tex]distance = 506 ft
The answer is:
The distance between the lamp posts is 506 ft
