A train travels the first 15 km at a uniform speed of 30 kmh 1, the next 75 km at auniform speed of 50 kmh 1, and the last 10 km at a uniform speed of 20 kmh 1. |

Answer» Given, d 1
=15km,V 1
=30km/h d
=75KM,v 2
=50km/h d 3
=10km,v 3
=20km/h we know that, average SPEED =total distance covered/total time taken total distance covered =D=15+75+10=100km total time taken =T=(15/30)+(75/50)+(10/20)=2.5hours so, average speed =100/2.5=40km/h |
