Question

If the distance between A and B is 1409 Km. From A, Vishal goes to B with speed 71 km/h and return to A with the speed 39 km/h. Find the average speed of Vishal.(rounded off to two decimal place)

A.

40.32 km/h

B.

50.35 km/h

C.

44.05 km/h

D.

50.73 km/h

Correct option is B

Given:

Distance between A and B = 1409 km

Speed from A to B = 71 km/h

Speed from B to A = 39 km/h

Formula Used::

Average speed = Total distanceTotal time\frac{Total \ distance }{Total \ time}

Average Speed= 2×s1×s2s1+s2\frac{{2 \times s_1 \times s_2 }}{{s_1 +s_2}} 

Solution: 

Average Speed = 2×71×3971+39\frac{ 2 \times 71 \times 39 }{71 +39}  = 5538110=50.34\frac{5538}{110} = 50.345 km/h
