Two cars A and B race each other. The Car A ran for 2 minute at a speed of 7.5 km/h, slept for 56 minute and again ran for 2 minute at a speed of 7.5 km/h. find the average speed of the car A in the race. -Science

1 Answer

Answer :

We know that Distance=speed×timeDistance=speed×time Distance travelled in first 2 minute = 7.5×2607.5×260 = 0.25 km Distance travelled in last 2 minute = 7.5×2607.5×260= 0.25 km Total distance = .25+.25 = 0.5 km Total time = 2+2+56 = 60 minute = 1 hr Average speed = 0.5/1 = 0.5 km/hr
