A journey takes 4 hours 30 minutes at a speed of 60 Km/hr. How long will the
same journey take at a speed of 15 m/sec.
A journey takes 4 hours 30 minutes
=4×1/2
= 9/2 h at a speed of 60 km/h
If speed is 15 m/sec
Convert m/s into km/h
=15×18/5
=54 km/h
Let time taken =x h
∴60:54= 9/2:x
Less speed, more time
∴54:60= 9/2 :x
⇒54×x=60× 9/2
⇒x= 60×9/54×2
⇒x=5
∴ Time taken =5 hour
