60 km/h

Exρlαnαtion :

As per the provided information in the given question, we have :

  • Distance covered by the bus, s = 180 km
  • Time taken, t = 3 hours

We've been asked to calculate average speed of the car.

Before commencing the steps, firstly we need to understand what exactly the average speed is. Average speed refers to the total distance covered divided by total time taken to cover the distance. Its SI unit is m/s. Mathematically,

\bigstar \; \underline{\boxed{\bf{ Speed_{AV} = \dfrac{S_{(Total)}}{T_{(Total)} } }}}\\

Substitute the values,

\implies\rm{ Speed_{AV} =\cancel{ \dfrac{180\; km}{3\;h} } }

\implies \underline{\boxed{\bf{ Speed_{AV} = 60 \; kmh^{-1}}} }

The average speed of the car is 60 km/h.
