A car travels first half distance between two places with a speed of 40 km/h and the rest half distance with a speed of 60 km/h. The average speed of the car will be-

A

100 km/hr

B

50 km/hr

C

49 km/hr

D

200 km/hr

To find the average speed of the car that travels half the distance at 40 km/h and the other half at 60 km/h, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the total distance Let the total distance between the two places be \( D \). Therefore, the first half distance is \( \frac{D}{2} \) and the second half distance is also \( \frac{D}{2} \). ### Step 2: Calculate time taken for each half - **Time for the first half**: \[ ...
