Answer:

Time taken to cover the distance 100 m  = 2000 year

Explanation:

Given data:

Speed of plate = 5 cm per year

Time taken to cover the distance 100 m = ?

Solution:

Formula:

t = d/s

t = time

d = distance

s = speed

We will convert the given distance into cm.

100 m × 100 cm/1 m = 10000 cm

Now we will put the values in formula,

t = 10000 cm/ 5 cm/year

t = 2000 year
