1.
A person crosses a 600 m long street in 5 minutes. What is his speed in km per hour?
3.6
7.2
8.4
10
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Speed = 600 m/sec.
5 x 60

   = 2 m/sec.

Converting m/sec to km/hr (see important formulas section)

   = 2 x 18 km/hr
5

   = 7.2 km/hr.

600/5*60 = 2 m/sec.

Converting to km/h,

= 2*18/5.

= 7.2 km/h.

= (1000/3600) = 5/18 m/sec.
1 km = 1000 m.
1 hr = 3600 sec.
