Answer:
A car travels the first 50km of its journey at an average speed of 25m/s.
25m/s = 25*3600/1000 = 90 km/ hr.
Time = Distance/speed
Time = 50/90
=5/9hr.
next 120 km at an average speed of 80km/hr.
=Time = 120/80
=3/2h
last part of its journey at an average speed of 90km/hr in 35mins.
Time = 35 mins.
=35/60hr
=7/12hr.
Distance covered = 9*7/12=105/2km.
Total distance = 50+120+105 /2 =435/2km.
Total time = 5/9+3/2+7/12 =(20+54+21) /36
=95/36.
Average speed=
(435/2) /(95/96) =
432*18/95
=81.85km/hr.
thanks
