Answer:

600 seconds or equivalently 10 minutes

Explanation:

Use the formula for velocity, and solve for the unknown time (t), as follows:

[tex]v=\frac{d}{t} \\1.5 \frac{m}{s} =\frac{900m}{t\\}\\t*1.5 \frac{m}{s} =900m\\t=\frac{900}{1.5} s= 600 s[/tex]

Notice that all units are in the appropriate SI units, and therefore the answer for time comes in seconds.

600 seconds = 10 minutes
