Q:

A Bus travels first half distance between two places with a speed of 40 kmph and the rest half distance with a speed of 60 kmph. The average speed of the Bus is ?

A) 48 kmph B) 50 kmph
C) 46 kmph D) 42 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 48 kmph

Explanation:

we know that speed = distance traveled/time taken
let the total distance traveled by the car is 2x km.
then time taken by it to cover first half is x/60 hour.
and for second half is x/40 hour.
Then average speed= total distance travelled / total time taken.

 

i.e. 2xx60+x40

 

=> 2x5x120

 

= 48 kmph.

Q:

Sravan drove from home to a neighboring town at the speed of 50 km/h and on his returning journey, he drove at the speed of 45 km/h and also took an hour longer to reach home. What distance did he cover?

A) 350 kms B) 450 kms
C) 900 kms D) 700 kms
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 900 kms

Explanation:

Let the distance he covered each way = d kms

According to the question,

d/45 - d/50 = 1

=> d = 450 kms.

 

Hence, the total distance he covered in his way = d + d = 2 d = 2 x 450 = 900 kms.
