FAQs on Speed, Time & Distance Questions Video Lecture - General Aptitude for GATE - Mechanical Engineering

1. What is the formula for calculating speed?
Ans. The formula for calculating speed is speed = distance/time. It is the ratio of the distance traveled to the time taken to cover that distance.
2. How can I calculate the time taken to cover a distance given the speed and distance?
Ans. To calculate the time taken, you can rearrange the speed formula as time = distance/speed. Simply divide the distance by the speed to obtain the time taken.
3. Can you explain the concept of average speed?
Ans. Average speed is the total distance traveled divided by the total time taken. It gives a measure of how fast, on average, an object is moving. It is calculated by dividing the total distance traveled by the total time taken.
4. How does speed affect the time taken to cover a distance?
Ans. Speed and time are inversely proportional. As speed increases, the time taken to cover a distance decreases. Conversely, if the speed decreases, the time taken to cover the same distance will increase.
5. Can you provide an example of how to solve a speed, time, and distance problem?
Ans. Sure! Let's say you are traveling at a speed of 60 miles per hour and you want to find out how long it will take to travel a distance of 120 miles. Using the formula time = distance/speed, you would divide 120 miles by 60 miles per hour to get 2 hours. Therefore, it will take you 2 hours to cover a distance of 120 miles at a speed of 60 miles per hour.
