Physics · MOTION IN A STRAIGHT LINE
हिन्दीA car covers the first half of a total distance at a speed of \( 30\text{ km/h} \) and the second half of the distance at a speed of \( 60\text{ km/h} \). The average speed of the car for the entire journey is:
Correct answer · Option 1
\( 40\text{ km/h} \)
Explanation
For equal distances, harmonic mean formula applies: \( v_{\text{avg}} = \frac{2 v_1 v_2}{v_1 + v_2} = \frac{2 \times 30 \times 60}{30 + 60} = \frac{3600}{90} = 40\text{ km/h} \).
