Worksheet on Expressing Speed in Different Units
We will practice the questions given in the worksheet on expressing speed in different units. We know speed is equal to distance/time.
1. Find the speed in the following cases:
(i) Distance = 90 km, Time = 2 hours
(ii) Distance = 36000 m, Time = 24 seconds
(iii) Distance = 750 km, Time = 15 hours.
2. A student has to reach his school in 15 minutes. If the school is 800 metres way, at what speed should he walk?
3. A fox ran 1000 m in 5 minutes. Find its speed.
4. Sam and Tony went to Derek’s house in their cars. Sam
covered a distance of 11 km in 10 minutes. Tony covered a distance of 24 km in
20 minutes. Who drove faster?
5. Express each of the following speeds in metres per second:
(i) 36 km per hour
(ii) 72 km per hour
6. Express each of the following speeds in km per hour:
(i) 900 m per minute
(ii) 45 m per second
7. A man can cover 17 ½ km in 5 hours. Find his speed in
(i) m/min
(ii) m/sec
8. If the distance covered by a train is 360 km in 4 hours, find its speed.
Answers for the worksheet on expressing speed in different units are given below.
Answers:
1. (i) 45 km/hr
(ii) 150 m/sec
(iii) 50 km/hr
2. 53 1/3 m/min
3. 200 m/minute
4. Tony
5. (i) 10 m/sec
(ii) 20 m/sec
6. (i) 54 km/hr
(ii) 162 km/hr
7. (i) 58 1/3 m/min
(ii) 35/36 m/sec
8. 90 km/hrs
