An athlete runs a 200-meter race in 24 seconds. Find his speed in km/h.
A. 28.5 km/h
B. 24 km/h
C. 30 km/h
D. 33.33 km/h

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Speed in m/s = 200 / 24 = 25/3 m/s. To convert to km/h, multiply by 18/5. Speed = (25/3) * (18/5) = 5 * 6 = 30 km/h.

Question #2 Report Error
A real estate agent drives from his house to an office at 10 km/h and arrives 12 minutes late. If he increases his speed to 15 km/h, he arrives 4 minutes early. Find the distance.
A. 6 km
B. 12 km
C. 8 km
D. 10 km

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Time difference = 12 - (-4) = 16 minutes = 16/60 = 4/15 hours. Let distance be d. d/10 - d/15 = 4/15 => (3d - 2d) / 30 = 4/15 => d / 30 = 4/15 => d = 8 km.

D. 48 km/h

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Distance 1 = 60 * 2 = 120 km. Distance 2 = 40 * 3 = 120 km. Total distance = 240 km. Total time = 2 + 3 = 5 hours. Average speed = 240 / 5 = 48 km/h.
