Question

the odometer of a bus reads 1500km at the start of a trip and 2300km at the end of the trip. if the trip took 16 hours, calculate the average speed of the bus in km/h and m/s

​

Answer 1

Distance travelled = 2300-1500= 800km

Time taken = 16 hours

Speed (km/h) = 800/16 = 50 km/h

Speed (m/s) = 50 × 5/18 = 13.88 m/s

Answer 2

Distance travel by car=(2300−1500)km = 800

speed = distance / time = 800 / 16 = 50 km / h

Speed(m/s)=50× 5/18 =13.88 m/s.
