Study Notes
Distance, Speed, and Time Calculations
- A train traveling at 45 km/h needs to cover a distance of 4/5 km.
- Time taken in seconds can be calculated using the formula: Time = Distance / Speed.
- Convert speed from km/h to km/s: 45 km/h = 45/3600 km/s.
- Calculate time for distance of 4/5 km: Time = (4/5) / (45/3600) yields 36 seconds.
- The train will take 36 seconds to cover the distance.
Aeroplane Speed Requirements
- An aeroplane travels a distance at a speed of 240 km/h for 5 hours.
- Total distance covered can be calculated: Distance = Speed × Time = 240 km/h × 5 h = 1200 km.
- To find the speed required to cover the same distance in 1 2/3 hours (or 5/3 hours), use the formula: Speed = Distance / Time.
- Speed needed: 1200 km / (5/3 h) = 1200 km × (3/5) = 720 km/h.
- Incorrect options for the speed required include 300 km/h, 360 km/h, and 600 km/h; correct speed is 720 km/h.
