Second question
Solution
The second question is written in Sinhala, and here's a rough translation:
Question 2:
The distance between points and is 420 km. Point is located at a distance of 100 km from a city , while point is 60 km from city . A bus traveling from city reaches point at 7:00 AM. If the bus travels at a speed of 60 km/h, at what time will the bus reach point ?
Let me solve this:
Given:
- Distance from to = 420 km
- Bus speed = 60 km/h
- Time at = 7:00 AM
The total time it will take to travel from to :
So, if the bus leaves at 7:00 AM, after 7 hours it will reach , which is at:
Final Answer:
The bus will reach point at 2:00 PM.
Would you like more details or have any questions on this? Here are five related questions for further exploration:
- What if the bus stopped for a 30-minute break? What time would it reach ?
- How would the arrival time change if the speed of the bus was 80 km/h?
- If the bus departed at 6:00 AM instead of 7:00 AM, what would be the new arrival time?
- What would happen if the road between and had different speed limits?
- How far would the bus travel if it had to make detours along the route from to ?
Tip: When solving time and distance problems, always ensure that the units (km, hours, minutes) match up to avoid calculation mistakes.
