Calculating Distance

A transport aircraft flies at a constant cruising speed of $360\text{ miles per hour}$. If it maintains this speed, what is the total distance it travels in $40\text{ minutes}$, in miles?

A specialized reconnaissance team hikes through rough terrain at a steady pace of $3\text{ mph}$ for $1\text{ hour and } 40\text{ minutes}$.

(Provide your answer in miles, e.g., '50 miles')

A military supply truck travels at a steady rate of $40\text{ mph}$ for exactly $45$ minutes along a designated supply route. What is the total distance traveled?

A naval submarine travels at a steady surface speed of $15\text{ knots}$ (nautical miles per hour) for $2\text{ hours and } 20\text{ minutes}$ before submerging. What is the total distance traveled during this time?

A coastal patrol boat is conducting a surveillance mission. It travels at a steady speed of $12\text{ knots}$ (nautical miles per hour) for $2\text{ hours}$ and $15\text{ minutes}$. It then increases its speed to $20\text{ knots}$ for $12\text{ minutes}$ to intercept a vessel. What is the total distance traveled by the patrol boat, in nautical miles?

During a morning commute, a passenger train maintains a constant speed of $48\text{ miles per hour}$ between two city stations. If the non-stop journey takes exactly $15$ minutes, what is the total distance between the two stations?

A freight train departs from a central hub to deliver materials across two different transit zones. In the primary zone, the train maintains a constant speed of $60\text{ mph}$ for $2\text{ hours and } 45\text{ minutes}$. Upon entering the secondary zone, it reduces its speed to $40\text{ mph}$ for the remaining $1\text{ hour and } 15\text{ minutes}$ of the route. What is the total distance traveled by the freight train?

A military supply convoy travels at a steady speed of $40\text{ miles per hour}$ for $2\text{ hours}$. Then, it travels at a steady speed of $50\text{ miles per hour}$ for $1\text{ hour}$. What is the total distance traveled by the convoy? Provide your answer including the unit (e.g., '130 miles').

A logistical transport convoy travels along a main supply route at a steady speed of $55\text{ miles per hour}$. If the journey takes exactly $3\text{ hours and } 36\text{ minutes}$, what is the total distance traveled in miles?

A coast guard rescue helicopter flies directly toward a distressed vessel at a constant speed of $120\text{ miles per hour}$. If the flight takes exactly $45\text{ minutes}$, what is the total distance traveled by the helicopter?

A Coast Guard search and rescue helicopter departs its base and flies toward a distress signal at a steady speed of $140\text{ knots}$ for $45\text{ minutes}$. Upon arriving at the scene, the helicopter hovers in place for $15\text{ minutes}$ to hoist a survivor. It then flies directly to a coastal hospital at a steady speed of $160\text{ knots}$, arriving after $1\text{ hour and } 15\text{ minutes}$. What is the total distance traveled by the helicopter during this mission?

An armored reconnaissance vehicle is conducting a route clearance mission. It travels at a steady speed of $32\text{ miles per hour}$ for $45\text{ minutes}$. Then, due to rough terrain, its speed drops to $16\text{ miles per hour}$ for the next $1\text{ hour}$ and $15\text{ minutes}$. What is the total distance the vehicle traveled, in miles?

A naval destroyer is tasked with an interception mission. It travels in a straight line at a constant speed of $35\text{ knots}$ (where $1\text{ knot} = 1\text{ nautical mile per hour}$) for exactly $3\text{ hours and } 12\text{ minutes}$. What is the total distance traveled by the destroyer?

A dispatch rider is transporting urgent documents between two military installations. The rider travels on a paved highway at a constant speed of $65\text{ mph}$ for $1\text{ hour and } 12\text{ minutes}$. Upon reaching a rural sector, the rider continues on an unpaved route at a steady speed of $42\text{ mph}$ for $35\text{ minutes}$. What is the total distance, in miles, the dispatch rider traveled?

A disaster relief team is transporting supplies to a stricken area. They first drive their trucks on a paved highway at a constant speed of $52\text{ miles per hour}$ for $1\text{ hour and } 15\text{ minutes}$. They then transition to rough off-road terrain, where they travel at a steady speed of $18\text{ miles per hour}$ for $40\text{ minutes}$ to reach their final destination. What is the total distance traveled by the team?

A naval submarine travels completely submerged at a steady cruising speed of $40\text{ knots}$. If it maintains this speed for $3\text{ hours and } 15\text{ minutes}$ during a continuous sonar patrol, what is the total distance covered?

A military cargo plane flies from Base Alpha to Base Bravo at a steady cruising speed of $320\text{ miles per hour}$. This first leg of the flight takes $2\text{ hours and } 45\text{ minutes}$. After refueling, the plane continues to Base Charlie, flying at $280\text{ miles per hour}$ for $1\text{ hour and } 30\text{ minutes}$. What is the total distance traveled by the cargo plane from Base Alpha to Base Charlie? Include both the numeric value and unit in your answer (e.g., '500 miles').

An armored convoy travels from Camp Alpha to Camp Bravo. For the first segment of the trip, the convoy travels at an average speed of 45 mph for 1 hour and 20 minutes. They then stop for a 45-minute rest. After the rest, the convoy resumes travel at an average speed of 30 mph for 2 hours and 15 minutes to reach Camp Bravo. Upon arrival, the convoy immediately takes a different, more direct route back to Camp Alpha. The return route is 20% shorter than the total distance they traveled to reach Camp Bravo. What is the total distance the convoy traveled during the entire round trip?

A rescue helicopter flies at a rate of $3$ miles per minute for $40$ minutes to reach an extraction point. After the pickup, it flies to a hospital at a cruising speed of $120$ miles per hour for $90$ minutes. What is the total distance the helicopter traveled in miles?
