Answer:
Given :
▪ A car covers first half of total distance with speed 40kmph and second half of total distance with speed 60kmph.
To Find :
▪ Average speed of the car.
Concept :
✏ If body covers first half of total distance with speed v1 and second half of total distance with speed v2, then average speed of the body is given by
☞ (v)av = 2v1v2/v1+v2
✏ Average speed is defined as the ratio of total distance travelled to the total time taken.
✏ It is a scalar quantity.
Calculation :
→ (v)av = 2v1v2/v1+v2
→ (v)av = 2(40)(60)/(40+60)
→ (v)av = 4800/100
→ (v)av = 48kmph
