The correct Answer is:
To find the speed of a man riding his bicycle in km/hr, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the formula for speed The formula for speed is given by: \[ \text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}} \] ### Step 2: Identify the distance and time From the problem, we know: - Distance = 150 meters - Time = 25 seconds ### Step 3: Calculate the speed in meters per second Using the formula: \[ \text{Speed} = \frac{150 \text{ meters}}{25 \text{ seconds}} = 6 \text{ m/s} \] ### Step 4: Convert the speed from m/s to km/hr To convert meters per second to kilometers per hour, we use the conversion factor: \[ 1 \text{ m/s} = 3.6 \text{ km/hr} \] Thus, we multiply the speed in m/s by 3.6: \[ \text{Speed in km/hr} = 6 \text{ m/s} \times 3.6 = 21.6 \text{ km/hr} \] ### Final Answer The speed of the man riding his bicycle is: \[ \text{Speed} = 21.6 \text{ km/hr} \] ---
