Answer:
1. 45km/hr and 12.5m/s
2.8 hours
3. 240km
Explanation:
1.
(i)km/hr
speed = distance/time
distance =15km
time = 20mins = 20/60hrs = 1/3hrs
therefore,
speed = 15/1/3 = 15*3
= 45 km/hr.
(ii)m/s
speed in km/hr = 45km/hr.
thus,
speed in m/s = 45*5/18 = 25/2[multiplying speed in km/hr with 5/18 gives speed in m/s.]
= 12.5m/s
2.
speed = distance/time.
so, time = distance/speed.
distance = 400km
speed = 50km/hr
therefore,
distance = 400/50
= 8hrs
3.
speed = distance/time
so, distance = speed*time
speed = 40km/h
time = 6hours
therefore,
distance = 40*6
= 240km
