The correct Answer is:
To determine which relation among the given options is correct regarding speed, distance, and time, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Basic Formula**: The basic formula that relates speed, distance, and time is: \[ \text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}} \] 2. **Analyze Each Option**: - **Option 1**: Speed = Distance × Time - This is incorrect because speed is not calculated by multiplying distance and time. - **Option 2**: Speed = Distance / Time - This is correct as it directly follows the basic formula. - **Option 3**: Speed = Time / Distance - This is incorrect because it reverses the relationship. - **Option 4**: Speed = 1 / (Distance × Time) - This is incorrect as it does not represent the relationship between speed, distance, and time. 3. **Identify the Correct Option**: - From the analysis, we see that only **Option 2** correctly represents the relationship between speed, distance, and time. ### Final Answer: The correct relation is given in **Option 2**: Speed = Distance / Time.

To determine which relation among the given options is correct regarding speed, distance, and time, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Basic Formula**: The basic formula that relates speed, distance, and time is: \[ \text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}} ...
