Answer:

[tex]d=2016km[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the velocity in kilometers per minute by using the following units conversion:

[tex]v=1.12x10^4\frac{m}{s}*\frac{1km}{1000m}*\frac{60s}{1min}\\ \\v=672\frac{km}{min}[/tex]

Thus, for a 3-minutes travel, the traveled distance in km is:

[tex]d=v*t=672\frac{km}{min}*3min \\\\d=2016km[/tex]

Regards.
