QUESTION #2847
Question 1
A car covers a certain distance at 60 km/h and returns at 40 km/h. What is the average speed for the entire journey?
Correct Answer Explanation
Average speed for same distance at two speeds \(= \dfrac{2 \times v_1 \times v_2}{v_1 + v_2} = \dfrac{2 \times 60 \times 40}{60 + 40} = \dfrac{4800}{100} = 48\) km/h.
