Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance covered = 100 m

Time taken to cover the 100 m distance=9.90 second

1.

The distance covered by him in 1 minute or 60 second:

Distance covered by him in 1 second is=\frac{100}{9.9}

Therefore, distance covered by him in 1 minute or 60 second is=\frac{100}{9.9}\times60=606.06\text{ m}

2.

The distance covered by him in 1 hr or 3600 second:

Distance covered by him in 1 second is=\frac{100}{9.9}

Therefore, distance covered by him in 1 hr or 3600 second is=\frac{100}{9.9}\times3600=3636.36\text{ m}=3.636\text{ km}

3.

Average speed:

Distance covered D=100\text{ m}=\frac{100}{1000}\text{ km}=0.1\text{ km}

Time taken to cover the 100 m distanceT=9.90\text{ s}=\frac{9.9}{3600}\text{ hr}

\text{Average speed}=\frac{\text{Distance covered}}{\text{Time}}

Therefore,

S=\frac{D}{T}\\\\\Rightarrow S=\frac{.1}{\frac{9.9}{3600}}\\\\\Rightarrow S=\frac{.1\times3600}{9.9}\\\\\Rightarrow S=\frac{3600}{99}\\\\\Rightarrow S=36.36\text{ km/hr}
