SUMMARY

The travel time for a horse to cover the distance from Manila to Baguio, which is 500 km, can be calculated using the formula time = distance / speed. Given that a horse travels at a speed of 12 km/hr, the calculation results in approximately 41.67 hours. The formula can be expressed as t = d/v, where t is time, d is distance, and v is speed. This straightforward approach allows for accurate travel time estimation based on the horse's speed.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of basic physics concepts such as speed, distance, and time.
  • Familiarity with the formula t = d/v for calculating time.
  • Knowledge of metric units, specifically kilometers and hours.
  • Basic arithmetic skills for performing division calculations.
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the effects of terrain on horse travel speed.
  • Explore different horse breeds and their average travel speeds.
  • Learn about travel planning for long-distance horse riding.
  • Investigate the nutritional needs of horses during extended travel.
USEFUL FOR

Equestrians, horse trainers, travel planners, and anyone interested in long-distance horse travel logistics.

Every horse travels 12 km every hour, how long will it take to travel from manila to baguio which is 500 km away?

How will i write every hour? I am confused, is is 60 minutes? Ty in advance
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Is it *
 
"12 km every hour" = "12 km per hour" = 12 km/hr.
 
Here the speed of horse is 12 km/hr.
Speed = distance / time
Just substitute the values in the above equation to get the time required.
 
Thank you very much :)
 
Isnt it t=d/v ? Cause its asking how long will it take to travel... I am kinda confused i solve it and i got 41.66hr hehe :)
