A race car travels 100 feet in 0.5 seconds. How far will it travel in one minute?

60,000 feet
6,000 feet
12,000 feet
5,000 feet

The correct answer is: 12,000 feet

To determine how far the race car will travel in one minute based on its speed, we first calculate its speed in feet per second. The car travels 100 feet in 0.5 seconds, which can be translated into a speed calculation: Speed = Distance / Time = 100 feet / 0.5 seconds = 200 feet per second. Now that we have the speed, we can find out how far it travels in one minute. There are 60 seconds in one minute, so we multiply the speed by the total number of seconds in one minute: Distance in one minute = Speed x Time = 200 feet/second x 60 seconds = 12,000 feet. This calculation shows that the correct answer is 12,000 feet, which corresponds to the choice provided in the answer. This answer accurately reflects the transformation of the time and distance into a coherent speed measurement and then extends it over the full duration of one minute.
