I'm so lost at physics this is from an elementary chapter.
During a hard sneeze, your eyes might shut for .50 seconds. If you are driving a car at 90km/h during such a sneeze, how far does the car move during that time?
Well, the car moves 90km every 3600 seconds. So wouldn't you just multiply that by .5 since it's only a half a second?
Please help! Thanks so much!

first find out how much the car moves in one second...if it moves 90 km in 3600 secs, that is the same as
90,000 m in 3600 s = 25 m/s
in half a second the car moves 12.5 m
Or you could figure that the car moves 0.025 KM in 1 second, multply that by .5 and get .0125Km.
90000m in 3600 seconds
or 90000/3600 m in 1 second
or 90000/7200 m in 0.5 second =12.5 m in 0.5 second
