Average speed = Distance/Time = 480/8 = 60 km/h
To find average speed, use the formula: Average Speed = \(\frac{\text{Total Distance}}{\text{Total Time}}\)
Step 1: Identify the given information
- Departure time: 6:00 AM
- Arrival time: 2:00 PM
- Distance: 360 km
Step 2: Calculate total travel time
Step 3: Apply the average speed formula
Step 4: Simplify
Answer: The average speed is \(45\,\text{km/h}\) (Option A)
The broad gauge of 1676 mm (or 5 feet 6 inches) is the standard gauge used in most of Indian Railways.
Average speed = Total distance / Total time = 360 km / 12 hours = 30 km/h
Percentage increase = [(90-60)/60] × 100 = (30/60) × 100 = 50%
Yellow light (or amber signal) indicates caution or proceed with reduced speed in railway signaling systems.
