Shatabdi Express train covers 700 km in 5 hours and another 1012 km in 11 hours.
Concept used:
Distance = speed × time
Average speed = Total distance / Total time
Calculation:
Total distance is 1012 + 700 = 1712 km
Total time is 5 + 11 = 16 hrs
Average speed = 1712 / 16
⇒ 107 km /hr
⇒ 107 × 5/18 = \(29\frac{13}{18}\)m/s
∴ The correct option is 3
