a car traveld with speed 30km per hour for 30 minutes and then with speed 40 km per hour for 1 hour find the average speed of the car
Answers
Answer:
Speed of car for first 30 minutes = 30 km h-1
Speed of car for next 1 hour = 40 km h-1
(a) Total distance travelled by the car
1st case, speed = Distance/Time ⇒ Distance = Speed × Time
(∵ 30 minutes = 0.5 hours)
Distance = 30 × 0.5
= 15 km ……(i)
IInd case Speed = Distance/Time ⇒ Distance = Speed × Time
Distance = 40 km h-1 × 1 hr
= 40 km …………(ii)
Adding (i) and (ii)
Total Distance = 15 km + 40 km = 55 km
(b) Total time of travel = 0.5 hr + 1.0 hrs = 1.5 hr
(c) Average speed = Total distance travelled/Total time taken
= 5.5 km/1.5 hr [from above (a) and (b)]
= 36.67 km h-1
hope like the answer please mark me as brainliest
Answer:
Average Speed is 36.67Km/H (Almost)
Explanation:
Total Distance Covered = (30Km/H × ½H)+(40Km/H×1H)
= (15+40)Km = 55Km
Total Time Taken = (½+1) H = 1½H
