Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1.8
Step-by-step explanation:
total time he has = 2 hrs
total distance he has to covered = 50 km
in first 1 hr he completed 20 km
so S1= 20 km/hr
so remaining distance = 50-20 = 30 Km
and remaining time = 1 hr
now he spent 10 minutes for refueling
so total remaining time he has = 60-10 = 50 minutes
he has to complete 30 km in this time
speed = 30\(10/60) km/hr
speed = 36 km/hr
for making a factor of initial speed as 20 km/hr
multiply 36 with 20/20
speed = 36x(20/20)
=(1.8x S1 )km\hr
= 1.8 km/hr ---- Ans (As S1 is 20km/hr)
