In a journey, a car travels at the rate of `20 km h^(-1)` for minutes and then at `30 km h^(-1)` for `20 minutes`. Find (i) the total distance traveled by the car and (ii) the average speed of the car during the journey. |

Answer» Here, `v_(1) =20 km h^(-1) , `t_(1) =(10)/(60) h 1/6 h. Distance travelled, `S_(1) =v_(1) v_(1) t_(1) =20 xx 1/6 =(10)/3 km` Distance travelled, `S_(2) =v_(2) t_(2) =30 xx 1/3 =10 km` (i) Total distance travelled , `S=S_(1) +s_(2) =(10)/3 + 10 =13.33 km` (ii) Average speed `=S/(t_(1) +t_(2)) =((10//3) +10)/((1//6) +(1//3))` `=26.66 km h^(-1)` |
