Question

Distance travelled in T1,T2 and T3 time intervals ar 3km,11km and 2km respectively. T1+T2+T3=36 mins.What is the maximum speed?

Answer 1

`11 (km)/(min)`

Explanation:

I will assume none of the times T1, T2, or T3 are less than 1 min.

The maximum speed would be `(11 km)/(1 min) = 11 (km)/(min)` (or 660 km/hr).

That leaves 35 minutes to travel the remaining 5 km at perhaps `(5 km)/(35 min) = 0.143 (km)/(min` (or 8.57 km/hr).

I hope this helps,
