A soldier runs 12 kilometres at a constant speed of 6 km/h. How long does the run take?
Answer: 2 hours
Time = Distance ÷ Speed = 12 ÷ 6 = 2 hours.
A convoy travels for 3 hours at 50 km/h. What distance does it cover?
Answer: 150 km
Distance = Speed × Time = 50 × 3 = 150 km.
A patrol covers 90 km in 2 hours. What is its average speed?
Answer: 45 km/h
Speed = Distance ÷ Time = 90 ÷ 2 = 45 km/h.
Vehicle A travels at 60 km/h and Vehicle B travels at 40 km/h. Both start at the same point at the same time. After 2 hours, how far apart are they?
Answer: 40 km
Vehicle A covers 120 km and Vehicle B covers 80 km, so they are 40 km apart.
A soldier must travel 75 km and has 1.5 hours. What minimum speed is required?
Answer: 50 km/h
Speed = Distance ÷ Time = 75 ÷ 1.5 = 50 km/h.
Which formula correctly expresses the relationship between distance (D), speed (S), and time (T)?
Answer: D = S × T
Distance equals speed multiplied by time: D = S × T.
