1 millimeter is 1 0 − 3 meters. The answer is therefore 1 0 − 5 1 0 − 3 = 1 0 0 seconds
speed of amoeba= 1/100000 m/s
distance=1/1000 m
so time=distance/speed=100 seconds
1 m m = 0 . 1 c m = 0 . 0 0 1 m
1 0 − 5 m / s 0 . 0 0 1 m = 1 0 0 s
From the velocity formula v =s/t, so t = s/v =0.001/ 10^-5 = 100 seconds
10^-5 m/s is also 10^-2 mm/s, which also converts to 1/100 of a millimeter per second. Thus, the time that would take an amoeba to run the "1 millimeter dash" is 100 seconds.
1mm=10E-3. time=distance/speed=10E-3/10E-5=100
10^-5 = 0,00001= {1}{100000} 1 mm = 10^-3 = 0,001 = {1}{1000}
Assim Temos Fração por Fração , Conservar a Primeira e Multiplica pela o Inverso da Segunda
{1}{1000} x {100000}{1} = {100000}{1000} = 100
We know that to calculate the time, we can use this popular formula :
S = V x t
So, we get t = S / V = 10 ^ -3 / 10 ^ -5 = 100 seconds
Time=Distance/Speed 1mm=0.001m Time=0.001/10^{-5}=100 seconds
Speed = Distance / Time , therefore Time = Distance / Speed. 1 millimeter = (10^-3)m. Thus, the time taken = (10^-3)/(10^-5) = 100 seconds.
Using 1 m m = 1 0 − 3 m we can get 1 0 − 5 1 0 − 3 = 1 0 0 ( s )
Speed of Amoeba = v =10^(-5) m/s. Distance travelled by Amoeba = s = 10^(-3) m Therefore,time taken to cover the required distance = t = s/v =100 s.
A amoeba's speed = 1 0 − 5 meter ; Total Distance = 1 millimeter = 1 0 − 3 meter ; So, Total time = 1 0 − 3 / 1 0 − 5 = 1 0 0
Speed given = 10^-5 m/s distance= 1 mm or 10^-3 m time= distance/speed time= 10^-3 / 10^-5 time=10^2=100
We know that, the velocity is defined in the physic that v = {frac}{s}{t} , v, s, t consequenly are velocity in meter/seconds, distance in meter, and time in seconds
So, the amoeba has velocity = 10^{-5} m/s and distance = 1 mm = 10^{-3} m, then the time is velocity x time = 100 seconds.

We know, d = v t ⟹ t = v d where, d is the distance traveled, t is the time taken and v is the velocity...
From the question, we get,
d = 1 m m = 1 0 0 0 1 m
v = 1 0 − 5 m / s = 1 0 5 1 m / s = 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 m / s
t = ?
Plugging in the values in the formula, we get...
t = 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 m / s 1 0 0 0 1 m = 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 s = 1 0 0 s
Hence, the required answer is, 1 0 0
