Time, Speed and Distance

Question:

In a race, there are 4 members in a team. Each member has to cover 5 km one after another. If the total time taken is 30 minutes, then what would have been the average speed?

Options:

$50\frac{km}{hr}$

$40\frac{km}{hr}$

$50\frac{m}{sec}$

$40\frac{m}{sec}$

Correct Answer:

$40\frac{km}{hr}$

Explanation:

Total distance = 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 20 km

Total time taken = 30 minutes = 0.5 hour

Average speed = \(\frac{20}{0.5}\) = 40 km/hr
