Running Distance Calculator


How to find a distance covered by a object if it's speed and time  is given,first we will see the formula for running distance calculator.

use the following formula

Distance = Speed x Time

if the speed of the object is running or moving with the speed of 100 km per hr and in 2 hrs that object is going to be cover ------------------------distance?

as we know speed = 100 km per hr and time = 2 hrs

so we know the formula for  distance = speed x time = 100 x 2  = 200 kms

so if the object is moving with 100 km per hr than in 2 hrs it is going to be cover 200 kms distance

when distance covered by the object is asked in miles than use below notation

1 mile =1.6 kilo meters

If the distance i have to find in miles than what i have to do?

As we know 1 mile =1.6 km

so  in 200 km there will be how many miles?

1mile--------------------->1.6km

xmile----------------------->200 km

so by using cross multiplication

x = 200 / 1.6 miles  = 125  miles

I like to share this Critical Value Calculator with you all through my article.

Examples on Running Distance Calculator:

Ex:2 If the speed of a object(plane) is 20 mile per sec than what is the distance traveled by the object in 1 hour.

here speed = 20 miles per sec

so object is traveling 20 mile in 1 sec

so in 1 hour there are 60 sec so it will travel 20 x 60 mile per hour

so it will travel 1200 mile in each hour

if you want to convert this 1200 miles into kilo meters just multiply this 1200 with 1.6

so plane covered the distance of 1200 x1.6 =120 x 16 = 1920 kilo meters

some more examples

example 1: if jhon is driving a car with 90 kilo meter per hour and this is the average speed of his one side journey , for one side he take 5 hours to reach his destination than what is the distance at one side?

answer: jhon is driving with 90 kmph  so speed =90 kmph

and he taken 5 hours of time so time =5 hrs

distance formula is :

distance = speed x time =90 x 5 = 450 km

so his one side journey is 450 kilo meters(answer)

example 2 : if a helicopter is moving with 400 kilo meter per hour  and it traveled about 6 hours than helicopter covered distance in 5 hrs in miles__________?

here helicopter traveled the distance we have to find that to be in miles

for that first we will calculate the distance covered by the helicopter in 5 hrs with the speed of 400 km

than we convert the distance which is in km into miles for that we will use following formula

distance in miles=distance in km/1.6

by this formula distance will change from kilo meters to miles

helicopter  speed = 400 kmph

it taken time about of 5 hrs to reach the destination

so speed =400 kmph and time =5 hrs

distance = speed x time

=400 x 5

=1200 km

so distance in miles =1200/1.6 =12000/16 =750 miles(answer)

so helicopter covered distance of 750 miles in 5 hrs

example 3. pal has to reach his office in exact 15 mins from his home and for that he is moving with his bicycle with the speed if 20 kmph than what is distance  between his house and office?

here bicycle speed is 20 kmph and pal takes 15 mins to reach his office

so speed =20kmph

time=15 mins

here time is in minutes so we have to convert this time in to hours before we substitute time value in formula distance = speed x time , because speed is in km per hours

so distance=20 x15/60 =15/3=5

so distance between pal house and his office =5 kilo meters

example4:  peter average car speed is 60 kmph and he traveled about 3 hours than , distance covered by peter in  this time period=__________in miles

answer: speed = 60 kmph

time = 3 hrs

distance = speed x time = 60 x 3 =180 kilo meters

so peter covered the distance of 180 km but we have to calculate this in miles

so distance =180/1.6 = 1800/16 =900 / 8= 450 / 4 =225 / 2 =112.5 miles

so peter covered distance in miles = 112.5 miles

example 5: robo car is moving with 10 cm/ sec than in 1 minute that robo car is going to cover distance of _________in meters

speed = 10 cm /sec

time = 60 secs

so distance = speed x time = 10 x 60 = 600 cms

but we have to calculate this distance in meters

we know that 100 cms(centi meter)- - - - - - - - -- - - -- - - >1 meter

so 600cms-------------------------------------------------------------->?(take unknown value as X)

so 600 x 1 = 100 x X

X=600/100 meters

distance in meters = 600/100 =6 meters(by cross multiplication)

so fill the blank with the 6 meters

I am planning to write more post on Interpretation of Confidence Interval and Interpreting Bar Graphs. Keep checking my blog.

example 6: distance between two metro stations is _____________in miles, if train is moving with 60kmph and it taken 2 and 1/2 hr to reach the destination

so we have to calculate the distance between two metro stations

here data is given in the question that train is moving with the average speed of 60kmph

and time taken by the train to reach it's destination is 2 and 1/2 hrs

so speed = 60 kmph and time =(2+1/2)= (2x2+1)/2=5/2 hrs

we know distance formula as distance = speed x time

so distance = 60 x 5/2 = 30 x 5 =150 kilo meters

but we have to calculate distance in miles

so convert the kilometers in to miles

we know that 1 mile------------------------------->1.6 km

?       <-------------------------------150 km="" p="">
by cross multiplication

? x 1.6 = 1 x 150

? = 150/1.6

?=150 x 10/16

?=150 x 5/8

?=75 x 5/4

after calculating above expression we will get the distance between two stations as 93.75 miles(this is the required answer)
Problems for Practice on Running Distance Calculator:

some more problems for practice......

1. convert 110 kilometers into miles_________(answer?)

2.car moving with speed 90 kmph and to cover particular distance car taken about 1 and half hours than what is the distance of car starting point to the destination?

3. train is moving with the average speed of 110 kmph and at each stop 5 minutes and total stops between two major stations are 3 and train taken about 3 and 1/4 hr to reach it's destination station , then find the distance between two major stations in miles?

4. peter is ride  his bicycle with average speed of 30 kmph in first 10 minutes of total time and next 5 minutes he ride his bycle with 15 kmph average speed . than he accelerated his speed about 15 kmph and he reached his destination with the same speed in 7 minutes. than find the total distance between his starting and ending point of that race?

5.convert 1200 miles to kilometers?(answer 1920)
