The cruising speed of the airplane is equal to 200 m/s.
Given the following data:
- Time = [tex]\frac{1}{12} \;minute[/tex]
To calculate the cruising speed of the airplane:
What is speed?
Speed can be defined as the distance covered by a physical object per unit of time. Thus, speed can be measured as meter per seconds.
Mathematically, speed is given by this formula;
[tex]Speed = \frac{distance}{time}
[/tex]
Conversion:
Distance = 1 kilometer = 1000 meter
Time = [tex]\frac{1}{12} \times 60 = 5\;seconds[/tex]
Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;
[tex]Speed =\frac{1000}{5} [/tex]
Speed = 200 m/s.
