All these days I wat getting why we should multiply with 60.
Your explaination regarding that 60 is going to be useful for me. Your expalination was clean and clear.
Thank you so much.

Why did you invert 5/18 into 18/5?

I didn't get why does change 5/18 into 18/5.

Forget this above mentioned method
one man cover 600 m in 5 min thn in 60 min (1 hour)how much he cover
( 60 x 600 ) / 5 = 7200 m = 7200 / 1000 = 7.2 km / hour
1 km = 1000 m

@jayan,jashwa
to convert km/hr to m/sec, we hav to do in dis way.....
1km=1000m
1hr=3600sec
1km/hr=1000/3600 m/sec
therefore 1km/hr=5/18 m/sec
similarly to convert m/sec, we hav to in reverse way.....
1000m=1km ---> m=1/1000km
3600sec=1hr ---> sec=1/3600hr
its just a normal cross multiplication
m/sec=3600/1000 km/hr
therefore m/sec=18/5 km/hr
its not necessary to do al these steps. i included al the steps just for your better understanding......... hope u can understand now
thank u

Just formula s=d/t
=600/5*60m/sec

Great guys. All of you have helped freshers in every best possible way to learn through... And freshers need not panic, go through all suggestions and sure you shall end up with happy results. & its an enlightning that you never forget your basics.
T=5 Min, 5*60=300sec
SPEED=DISTANCE/TIME
=600/300
=2m/s
convert m/s to km/sec by formula
2*18/5
=36/5
=7.2km/hr

For 600m 5 min. thn for
60min .... km
=> 600/5*60= 2m/sec
convert to km
so for 1 hr 3600sec
and 1000m = 1km
3600*2/1000=7.2km

speed=distance/time
so the given distance is 600m and time is 5 mins..for this we have to convert minutes into seconds..5*60=300 seconds.
speed=(600*300)m/sec=2m/sec bt in answer they given in km/hr so we have to change m/sec in km/hr
speed=(2*18/5)km/hr=7.2 km

And onething before attempting the answers. We should study the formulas. Hence it is given in Important formulas. We must calculate using by mentioned formulas.

A person is running at a speed of 18km/hr After one min a bomb blasts . Sound travels at 330m/s. How long does the man run before he cud he hear the sound??
How to solve this question?

In above problem clearly given that for 5 minutes travelled distance is 600 mtrs.multiplied with 12 on both sides then we get one hour travelled distance i.e. 12*5mnts is 12*600mts = 7.2 km.

Please, dear. Not understand the conversion of the m/sec to km/sec. Please tell me brifely.

Its simple, no need to go through 18/5. do one thing,
1st convert m/s into km/hr i.e. (2m/s=2*3600/(1000)) after doing this calculation you will get {7.2 km/hr}
Our question is why we convert 5 min into seconds. Its because of the formula i.e. if speed of the body is 'a'm/sec then when we convert it into km/sec, it becomes (a*18/5) km/sec. In both cases time is required in sec. So it is necessary to convert 5 min into sec. Ok ?

Simply,
One man cover 600 m in 5 minute
first calculation wht is dist cover for 1 minute
600mtr/5min = 120meter is cover per(1) minute
qus is find the km/perhour
1hour=60minute
120mtr*60minute = 7200meter is cover in 1hour(60minute)
find km
1000meter=1km
=7200/1000=7.2 km/perhour
Dinen said:

Very simple,
In 5 mins he covers 600 m.
In 1 min he will cover 600/5.
In 60 mins he will cover (600*60) /5 = 7200 m i.e. 7. 2 km.
Ravi Saini said:

In 1 km -1000 m
1 hr.-60 min.
1 min.-60 sec.
So, 1 hr.-3600 sec.
metre\hour to k.m\sec.
To do it, 3600.metr\1000.sec.
Now divide 3600 to 1000, we get 18\5.

600 mtr in 5 minutes so
1 km = 1000 mtr
(600/5=120 mtrs per minute) so
1 hour = 60 minutes so
(60*120=7200 mtrs)
m/sec.
