Question

In the hare tortoise race, the hare ran for 2 min at a speed of 7.5km/h, he slept for 56 min and again ran for 2 min at a speed of 7.5km/h. find the average speed of the hare in the race

Answer 1

Hi. ..

D1 = 7.5×2/60= 0.25km

D2= 7.5×2/60= 0.25km

Total Distance= 0.25+0.25=0.50km

Total time taken = 2+2+56=60min= 1 HR

Average speed =total distance/ total time
Average speed= 0.50/1= 0.50 km/hr..


Hope this helps u!!
