Question

the school is at a distance of 1200 metres from anl's house . it take 10 minutes to cover the distance . what is his speed​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance =1200 m

time =10 min =600 sec

speed =distance /time

=1200/600=2m/s

speed is 2 metre per second

or

2*18/5=36/5=7.2 kmph

Answer 2

Answer :

2 m/s

Given :

Distance = 1200 m

Time = 10 minutes = 10 × 60 = 600 seconds.

To find :

Speed

Solution :

Time = 10 × 60 = 600 s

We know Speed is :

$\sf \: Speed \: = \dfrac{Total \: Distance \: covered }{Total \: time \: taken}$

$= \dfrac{1200}{600}$

$= 2 \sf \: m/s$

Hence, the Speed of Anil is

2 m/s.

• The distance covered by an object in a unit time as the speed of the object.

$\sf \: Speed \: = \dfrac{Total \: Distance \: covered }{Total \: time \: taken}$

• The speed of an object refers the distance that object moves in unit time.

$\sf Distance = speed \times time$

• The parameter that plays an important role to know whether a body is moving slower or faster is known as Time.

$\sf \: Time = \dfrac{Distance }{Speed }$
