उत्तर
let distance between P and Q is S.
Speed of car while travelling from P to Q is 20 m/s.
Let car take time T1 to travel from P to Q then T1= S/20.
Speed of car while travelling from Q to P is 30 m/s.
Let car take time T2 to travel from Q to P then T2= S/30.
Total time = T1 + T2 = S/20 +S/30 =S/12.
So average speed of journey = total distance/ total time = 2S/(S/12) = 24 m/s.
Average speed of journey is 24 m/s.

A girl had designed a clap switch for a science exhibition that enabled her to switch on or off an alarm just with clapping of hands. While testing her device in a hall, she noticed that once the alarm has sounded it followed with another one due to echo of the clap, that is, the sound reflected by the walls. She recorded the two soundings of alarm with her tape recorder and found out that time difference in between them is 0.1 s. If the distance of the walls be 15 m, calculate the speed of sound.
