Snow White transport

The dwarfs dragged Snow White in a coffin from the garden to the house as Snow White with the coffin was heavy. The dwarves pulled her with a speed of 0.2 m/s. The place where Snow White and the coffin were laid was 15000 cm away from the place in the house. How long did the dwarfs take to get Snow White to a specific place in the house?

Final Answer:

t =  12.5 min

Step-by-step explanation:

$$\begin{gathered} v=0.2\text{m/s} \\ s=15000\text{cm}\to \text{m}=15000:100\text{m}=150\text{m} \\ {t}_1=s/v=150/0.2=750\text{s} \\ t=t_1\to \text{min}=t_1:60\text{min}=750:60\text{min}=12.5\text{min}=12.5\text{min} \end{gathered}$$
