A man covers a total distance of 100 km on bicycle. For the first 2 hours, the speed was 20 km/hr and for the rest of the journey, it came down to 10 km/hr. The average speed will be
-
-
12 1 km/hr 2 - 13 km/hr
-
15 1 km/hr 8 - 20 km/hr
-
Correct Option: A
Distance covered in first 2 hours
= 2 × 20 = 40 km.
Remaining distance
= 100 – 40 = 60 km.
Time taken in covering 60 km at 10 kmph
| = | = 6 hours | |
| 10 |
| ∴ Required average speed = | |
| Total Time |
| = | ![]() | ![]() | kmph | |
| 2 + 6 |
| = | ![]() | ![]() | kmph | |
| 8 |
| = | kmph | |
| 2 |
| = 12 | kmph | |
| 2 |
