(a) 69.0 km/h

(b) 67.0 km/h

(c) 69.2 km/h

(d) 67.2 km/h

[In hindi : दो स्टेशनों x ओर y के बीच की दूरी 778 किलोमीटर है एक रेलगाड़ी x ओर y तक कि दूरी 84 किलोमीटर प्रति घंटा की चाल से तथा वापसी की यात्रा 56 किलोमीटर प्रति घंटा की चाल से तय करती है पूरी यात्रा के लिए रेलगाडी की औसत चाल किलोमीटर प्रति घंटा में ज्ञात कीजिए​ ]


Answer: (d) 67.2 km/h


Discription: 

(Shortcut Method Given Below Next)

Here, time taken from A to B is

= Distance/speed

= 778/84 hour

time taken from B to A is

= 778/56 hour (same formula)

So, Total Timing = 778/84 + 778/56

= 778 ( 1/84 + 1/56 )

Total Distance = 2 × 778 (Journey and Back Journey)

So, Average Speed

= total Distance / total timing

= 2 × 778 / 778(1/84 + 1/56)

= 2 × 84 × 56 / (56 + 84)

= 67.2 km/h

Shortcut Method:

If two different speed x and y covering the same distances are given, then to find the average speed, just use this formula:

Average Speed = 2xy / (x + y)

Here, x = 84 and y = 56

So, Average Speed = 2 × 84 × 56 / (84 + 56)

= 67.2 km/h

 


Related Questions and Solutions to ” distance between two stations A and B

Q. The distance between two stations A and B is 250 km. two trains starts simultaneously from A and B in opposite directions. the distance between them after 2.5 hrs is 25 km. if the speed of one train is 10 km/hr more then other .find the speed of each train

Solutions:

Total Distance = 250 km

After 2.5 hours = (250 – 25) = 225 km

Let, speed of slower train = x

Speed of speedy train = x + 10

So, Distance Traveled by the train in 2.5 hours = 2.5x + 2.5(x + 10)

=> 225 = 2.5x + 2.5x + 25

=> 225 – 25 = 5x

=> 200 = 5x

=> x = 40 km/h

And x + 10 = 50 km/h

So, Speed of the trains are 40 km/h and 50 km/h.
