Eyes shut = 0.5 sec

Speed = 90 km/hr

In 1 hour, it will travel at 90 km.

Let us divide 90 to 60 since 1 hour has 60 minutes.

The distance would be 1.5km/min.

Let us again divide it by 60 because 1 minute is equals to 60 seconds, so it will be 0.025km/second.

0.025 divided by 2 equals 0.0125km.

So the car’s distance is 0.0125km or 12.5 meters per 0.5 second.
