the area of a square field is 900m2 . how much time will a girl take to run 10 times around it at the rate of 6 km / h?
Answers
Answer:
Time taken by the girl to run 10 times around it at the rate of 6 km / h is 12 minute.
Step-by-step-explanation:
Given,
Area of the field ( square shaped ) is 900 m^2.
From the properties of square
- Area of square : side^2
- Perimeter of square : 4 x side
Here,
= > Area of the square field = 900 m^2
= > ( length of side )^2 = 900 m^2
= > length of side of the field = 30 m^2 { √{ 900 m^2 } = 30 m, here, it's positive,since length can't be negative }
If a girl runs around the field :
= > Total distance covered by the girl in a round = 4 x ( 30 m ) { there are four sides,each of length 30 m }
= > Total distance covered by the girl in a round = 120 m
= > Total distance covered by the girl in 10 rounds = 10 x 120 m
= > Total distance covered by the girl in 10 rounds = 1200 m = 1.2 km { 1000 m = 1 km }
We know,
- Speed = distance / time
= > Speed = 1.2 km / time taken
= > 6 km / h = 1.2 km / time taken
= > time taken = 1.2 / 6 h
= > time taken = 0.2 h Or 12 min
Hence the
- Area of square field = 900m²
- How much time will a girl take to run 10 times at the rate of 6km/h .
- Area of square = side × side
- Area cover by running in one round = perimeter of square = 4 × side
- 1 km = 1000 m
- 1 hour = 60 minutes .
→ Area of Square given = 900m²
so,
900m² = side × side
→ 900 m² = side²
→ √900 = side
→ side = 30m
So, side of Square is 30 m.

Now,
Perimeter of square = 4 × side = 4×30 = 120m = Distance cover in one round .
so,
Distance cover in 10 round = 120×10 = 1200m .

Now,
Given , speed of girl is 6km/h .
that ,means ,
girl cover 6km or 6000m in 1 hour or 60min ....
6000m ---------------- 60min
1m ----------------------- (60/6000)min
1200m ----------------- (1/100) × 1200 = 12 minutes ...
