Question

Which of the following is NOT a correct statement?

A.

The speed of 20 m/s is less than the speed of 85 km/h.

B.

Time may be calculated by dividing the distance by the speed.

C.

Covering the same distance in lesser time implies a higher speed.

D.

The speed of 99 km/h is less than the speed of 24 m/s.

Correct option is D

Formula Used: 
Speed = Distancetime\frac{ Distance}{time} 
to converts km/h into m/sec 
we use  km/hr ×518=m/sec\times \frac{5}{18} = m/sec 
Solution:
Checking from the options 
Option(a). The speed of 20 m/sec is less the speed 80 km/h .
            converting 80km/h into m/sec = 80×518=25m/sec80 \times \frac{5}{18} = 25 m/sec 
As we can see this statement is correct.
Option (b): Time may be calculated by dividing the distance by the speed. 
              i.e  time=DistanceSpeed\text{time} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}} 
This statement is correct.
Option (c): Covering the same distance in lesser time implies a higher speed. 
                if distance is same then, time1Speedtime \propto \frac{1}{Speed} 
                so, if the time is less than speed is higher. 
Option(d): The speed of 99 km/h is less than the speed of 24 m/s
               converting 99 km/h  in m/sec = 99×518=27.5m/sec99 \times \frac{ 5}{18} = 27.5 m/sec 
                27.5 m/sec is greater than 24 m/sec , 
Therefore, this statement is incorrect. 
So, the incorrect option is option(d).
