A truck goes from Haryana to Bangalore with an average speed of 60 km/h. The journey takes 30 hours. It returns from Bangalore to Haryana on the same road with an average speed of 40 km/h. What was the average speed of the truck during the roundtrip? |
60 km/h 40 km/h 50 km/h 48 km/h |
48 km/h |
Average speed = \(\frac{2 × S1 × S2 }{S1 + S2}\) = \(\frac{2 × 60 × 40 }{60 + 40}\) = \(\frac{4800 }{100}\) = 48 km/h |
