engineering intelligence MCQ #185

  1. Question 1

    Q1. A car travels from city A to city B at an average speed of 60 km/h and returns at 40 km/h. What is the average speed for the entire trip?

    • A) 48 km/h
    • B) 50 km/h
    • C) 55 km/h
    • D) 60 km/h

    Answer: 48 km/h

    Explanation: Average speed = Total distance / Total time. For equal distances, it's 2 * speed1 * speed2 / (speed1 + speed2), so 2 * 60 * 40 / (60 + 40) = 48 km/h.
