A flight from london to barcelona takes two hours. It covers a distance of 900 miles. Calculate the speed of the plane in miles per hour

Speed = 450 miles per hour

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Time = 2 hours

Distance = 900 miles

To find the speed of the plane;

Speed can be defined as distance covered per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity and as such it has magnitude but no direction.

Mathematically, speed is given by the equation;

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Speed = 450 miles per hour
