Answer»

ong>Answer:

Given :

▪ A car covers first half of total distance with SPEED 40kmph and second half of total distance with speed 60kmph.

To Find :

AVERAGE speed of the car.

Concept :

✏ If body covers first half of total distance with speed v1 and second half of total distance with speed v2, then average speed of the body is given by

☞ (v)av = 2v1v2/v1+v2

✏ Average speed is DEFINED as the ratio of total distance travelled to the total TIME taken.

✏ It is a scalar quantity.

Calculation :

→ (v)av = 2v1v2/v1+v2

→ (v)av = 2(40)(60)/(40+60)

→ (v)av = 4800/100

→ (v)av = 48kmph
