Answer:

0.6 km / hour

Step-by-step explanation:

hai friend, thanks for asking the question, so without wasting time let's jump into it!  hope it helps you:)

Given;

  • Distance travelled = 6 km
  • time took on reaching 6 km from my position =   2hours
  • distance traveled back to my initial location = 6km ( the distances are the same!)
  • time took to come back to the initial position = 2hours 30 min = 2.5 hours ( as 30 min is half an hour)

Now going to the question,

we have to find speed in both cases,

we know,

SPEED = DISTANCE / TIME

so in the first case when I travel from my initial position to 6km away,

my speed s1 will be,

s1 = distance travelled / time taken

    = 6 km / 2 hours

    = 3 km/hour

and now in the second case, when I travel back to my initial position,

my speed s2 will be,

s2 = 6km / 2.5 hours

    =  2.4 km/hour

And now they are asking for the difference in the speed, and we are almost there,

DIFFERENCE IN SPEED = S1 - S2

                                         = 3km / hour - 2.4 km / hour

                                         = 0.6 km / hour

conclusion;

so the difference in speed = 0.6 km / hour
