Answer 2

Given :-

The distance between two stations = 360 km.

Time taken to cover the distance = 6 hours

To Find :-

Calculate the speed of the train in km/h and m/s.

Analysis :-

Divide the distance by time in order to get the speed.

Then convert the speed from km/hr to m/s accordingly.

Solution :-

We know that,

• s = Speed
• d = Distance
• t = Time

By the formula,

$\underline{\boxed{\sf Total \ speed=\dfrac{Total \ distance}{Total \ time} }}$

Given that,

Distance (d) = 360 km

Time (t) = 6 hours

Substituting their values,

Speed = 360/6

Speed = 60 km/hr

By converting,

$\sf 60 \times \dfrac{18}{5}$

$\sf =215 \ m/s$

Therefore,

Speed is km/hr = 60 km/hr

Speed is m/s = 215 m/s
