Hi....
average speed of first
distance = 20 km
speed = 40 km/h
time taken = 20/40 = 1/2 hrs
2nd time average
distance = 20 km
speed = 60 km/h
time taken by the car is = 20/60 = 1/3 hrs
total time taken = t1+t2 = 1/2 +1/3 = 5/6 hrs
Average speed of the car is = (20+20)/(5/6)
= 48 km/h
Hope this helps u!!
