s = d/t.
d = 600m,
t = 5m.
600/5 * 60,
= 2 * 18/5,
= 2 * 3.2,
= 7.2.
d = 600m,
t = 5m.
600/5 * 60,
= 2 * 18/5,
= 2 * 3.2,
= 7.2.

s = d/t.
600/300 m/sec,
= 2 m/sec.
2 * 18/5 km/hr.
s = 36/5 kmph.
600/300 m/sec,
= 2 m/sec.
2 * 18/5 km/hr.
s = 36/5 kmph.

600/5*60 = 2 m/sec.
Converting to km/h,
= 2*18/5.
= 7.2 km/h.
Converting to km/h,
= 2*18/5.
= 7.2 km/h.

600m = 0.6km.
t = 5min
means(5/60) = 1/12.
then 0.6/1/12,
=7.2.
t = 5min
means(5/60) = 1/12.
then 0.6/1/12,
=7.2.
