Question

Gita rides with her father’s bike to her uncle’s house which is 40 km away from her home. She takes 40 minutes to reach there.
Statement 1 : She travels with a speed of 1 km / minute.
Statement 2 : She travels with a speed of 1 km/hour
a. Statement 1 alone is correct.
b. Statement 2 alone is correct.
c. Both statement 1 and 2 are correct.
d. Neither statement 1 nor statement 2 is correct.

Answer 1

The distance covered by Gita = 40 km

The time taken by her = 40 minutes

As, Speed = Distance covered/time taken,

Therefore, speed of Gita = 40/40 = 1km/minute.

So the statement 1 of the question is correct.

As it has both magnitudes following the principles of the rate of change of
displacement in a particular direction, it is known as speed, and Gita had both the magnitude governing her.

The distance covered by Gita = 40 km

The time taken by her = 40 minutes

As, Speed = Distance covered/time taken,

Therefore, speed of Gita = 40/40 = 1km/minute.

So the statement 1 of the question is correct.

As it has both magnitudes following the principles of the rate of change of displacement in a particular direction, it is known as speed, and Gita had both the magnitude governing her.

The distance covered by Gita = 40 km

So the statement 1 of the question is correct.
