SPEED The distance covered per unit time is called speed Speed = => Time = distance/speed => Speed is directly proportional to distance and inversely to time Units 1. Time Seconds, minutes, hours 2. Distance meter, ilometer !. Speed " m/hr, m/sec Conversion 1. #m/hr = $m/1%sec 2. m/s = 1% m/$ hr !. #m/hr = $ miles/ % hrs &. miles/hr = 22 't/1$ sec (vera)e speed* The avera)e speed is )iven by total distance by total time ta en+ this is the 'ormula to be remembered all the time. (vera)e Speed = Total Distance/Total Time = ,d1-d2-d!-......dn./,t1-t2-.........tn. The avera)e speed in case o' a /ourney 'rom 0 to 1 at speed o' ( m/sec and returnin) bac to 0 at a speed o' 2 m/sec, is 32(2/, ( - 2 .4 m/sec. Example 1* Sunil travels 'rom Delhi to 5oida at the speed o' &6 m/hr and returns at the speed o' $6 m/hr, what is the avera)e speed o' the /ourney7 8sin) the 'ormula, 2(2/(-2 = 29&69$6/&6-$6 = &666/:6 = &&.&& #m/hr (lways remember the units, in what units you have started and in what units you are endin). (lternative way is by the basic principle o' mechanics, Speed = distance/time, which means Time = Distance/Speed and (vera)e Speed = Total distance / Total time Suppose distance 'rom Delhi to 5oida is (, there'ore Time while )oin), T1 = (/&6 Time while comin) T2 = (/$6 Total time = a/&6-a/$6 = :6a/&69$6 Total Distance = ( - ( = 2( (vera)e speed =Total Distance/Total Time = a/&6-a/$6 = :6a/&69$6 = &&.&& #m/hr

There are various types o' problems 'rom this topic and all o' them can be easily solved usin) the basic 'ormulas )iven above. ;e will discuss some 'ormulae and results 'or di''erent inds o' <uestions but students should always 'ollow the basics in this chapter. Relative speed: (s the name su))ests the concept is re)ardin) the relative speeds to two or more ob/ects. The basic concept in relative speed is that speeds )et added in case ob/ects are movin) 'rom opposite direction, and )et subtracted in case ob/ects are movin) in same direction. =or e9ample i' two trains are movin) in opposite direction with a speed o' 0 m/hr and 1 m/hr respectively, then ,0 - 1. is their relative speed. >n the other case i' two trains are movin) in same direction with a speed o' 0 m/hr and 1 m/hr respectively, then ,0 1. is their relative speed. =or the 'irst case the time ta en by the trains in passin) each other = ,?1 - ?2./,0 - 1. hours, where ?1 and ?2 are len)th o' trains. =or the second case the time ta en by the trains in passin) each other = ,?1 - ?2./ ,0 1. hours, where ?1 and ?2 are len)th o' trains. Example 2: Two trains 166 m and %6 m in len)th are runnin) in same direction. The 'irst runs at the rate o' $1 m/s and the second at the rate o' &2 m/s. @ow lon) will they ta e to cross each other7 @ere ?en)th o' train > = 166, ?en)th o' train >> = %6 (nd Speed o' train > = $1 m/s, Speed o' train >> = &2 m/s Aelative speed = $1 &2 = : m/s ,sine trains are in opposite direction. (s per the 'ormula ?1-?2/0- 1 =166-%6/:= 26 seconds Example 3: Two trains 166 m and %6 m in len)th are runnin) in opposite direction. The 'irst runs at the rate o' 16 m/s and the second at the rate o' 1$ m/s. @ow lon) will they ta e to cross each other7 @ere ?en)th o' train > = 166, ?en)th o' train >> = %6 (nd Speed o' train > = 16 m/s, Speed o' train >> = 1$ m/s Aelative speed = 16 - 1$ = 2$ m/s ,since trains are in same direction. (s per the 'ormula ?1 - ?2 / 0-1 =166-%6/2$ = B.2 seconds >n case o' train <uestions, students may remember these obvious results* 1. The time ta en by train 0 meters lon) in passin) a si)nal post is the time ta en 'or the train to cover 0. Example 4: ( train !66 meters lon) has a speed o' 16 m/s. @ow lon) will it ta e to pass an electric pole7 Time = Distance/speed, the distance here will be same as the len)th o' the train This is !66 meters, there'ore Time = !66/16 = !6 seconds 2. The time ta en by train 0 meters lon) in passin) any ob/ect which is 1 meters lon) is the time ta en 'or the train to cover 0 - 1.

Example 5: ( train !66 meters lon) has a speed o' 16 m/s. @ow lon) will it ta e to pass a plat'orm o' $6 meters7 Time = Distance/speed, the distance here will be same as the len)th o' the train - the len)th o' the plat'orm. This is !66 - $6 = !$6. There'ore Time = !$6/16 = !$ seconds The same concept is used in water with boats and swimmers. (s when you move upstream, your speed )ets deducted 'rom the speed o' the stream and when you move downstream yours and streamCs speed )ets added* ?et the speed o' a boat in still water be ( m/hr and the speed o' the stream ,or current. be 2 m/hr, then ,a. Speed o' boat with the stream = ,( - 2. m/hr ,b. Speed o' boat a)ainst the stream = ,( 2. m/hr There are two obvious results in this concept* 1. 2oatCs speed in still water = speed down stream - Speed upstream/2 Example : ( boat travels e<ual distance upstream and downstream, the upstream speed o' boat was 16 m/hr, whereas the downstream speed is 26 m/hr, what is the speed o' the boat in still water7 8pstream speed = 16 m/hr Downstream speed = 26 m/hr (s per 'ormula, 2oatCs speed in still water = speed down stream - Speed upstream/2 There'ore, 2oatCs speed in still water = = 1$ 2. Speed o' current = speed down stream " Speed upstream/2 Example !: ( boat travels e<ual distance upstream and downstream, the upstream speed o' boat was 16 m/hr, whereas the downstream speed is 26 m/hr, what is the speed o' the current7 8pstream speed = 16 m/hr Downstream speed = 26 m/hr (s per 'ormula, Speed o' current = Speed down stream " upstream / 2 There'ore, Speed o' current = 16/2 = $ m/hr Concept o" Races: Aace is a competition between contestants in order to reach a point 'astest. There can be many inds o' races. ;e will study linear and circular races. ?inear races ,non"circular.* The concepts o' time speed and distance are used in races, which may be linear or circular or other types. (lthou)h with the basic concepts )iven above you will be able to solve the races <uestions, but here are a 'ew de'initions in races, #ma$ine, % and & are t'o contestants in a race: 1. 2e'ore the start o' the race, i' 0 is at the startin) point and 1 is ahead o' 0 by 16 meters, then 0 is said to )ive 1 a start o' 16 meters. 16 meter here can be called as start distance or distance at start 2. >n a 166m race, >' it is written D0 can )ive 1 26 m startE or D0 beats 1 by 26 mE, it means that in the time 0 runs 166 m, 1 runs %6 m. 26 meter here can be called as beat distance called as

beat distance. !. Similarly, >' it is written D0 can )ive 1 26 second startE or D0 beats 1 by 26 secondsE, it means i' the )iven distance is covered by 0 in a seconds, then 1 will ta e ,a 26. &. ;innerCs distance ,start distance - beat distance. = loserCs distance $. ;innerCs time - ,start time - beat time. = loserCs time. ,Aemember here that the winnerCs time is less than loserCs time, so somethin) has to be added to e<uate. F. ( dead heat means the contestants reached the end point at same time Example (: Aam can )ive @ari 26 m start and @ari can )ive Aavi 16 m start in a race o' 266 m. 2y how much could Aam beat @ari in the same race7 Aam can )ive @ari a start o' 26 m, that means in 266 meter race ram can cover 266 meters in the same time as @ari covers 1%6 meters. @ari can )ive Aavi a start o' 16 m, which means in 266 meter race Aavi can cover 266 meters in the same time as @ari covers 1:6 meters. =rom second point, Aavi can cover 1 meter, when @ari covers 1:6/266 meters (lso, Aavi can cover 1%6 meter, ;hen @ari covers G 1%6 = 1B1 meters (lso when Aavi covers 1%6 meters, Aam covers 266 meters, and in this time @air covers 1B1 meters, there'ore Aam can )ive @ari a start distance o' 2: meters. Hircular races* >n circular races, the race is in a per'ect circle. @ere are some important points on circular races, with two or more people startin) 'rom same startin) point and at same time* 1. The time ta en by the 'aster one to )ain one 'ull round over the other is ,len)th o' race course./ ,relative speed. Example ): Aavi and Aam run around a circular path o' circum'erence 1666 meters. Aavi runs at & m/s and Aam runs at 2 m/s. >' they start 'rom the same point and wal in the same direction, when will they be 'irst to)ether a)ain7 AaviCs speed = & m/s, AamCs speed = 2 m/s Aelative speed = 2 m/s They will be to)ether a)ain when 'aster )ains 'ull circle over the slower There'ore time to )ain 'ull circle = 1666/2 = $66 seconds 2. They will be 'irst to)ether at the startin) point a)ain a'ter an interval o' time which is the ?HI o' the times in which each o' them ma es one complete round. Example 1*: Aavi and Aam run around a circular path o' circum'erence 1666 meters. Aavi runs at & m/s and Aam runs at 2 m/s. >' they start 'rom the same point and wal in the same direction. ;hen will they be 'irst to)ether a)ain at the startin) point7 AaviCs speed = & m/s, AamCs speed = 2 m/s Time ta en 'or Aavi to complete one lap = 1666/& = 2$6 seconds Time ta en 'or Aavi to complete one lap = 1666/2 = $66 seconds They will be to)ether a)ain at the startin) point = ?HI o' 2$6 and $66 This is $66 seconds. !. The persons will be to)ether a)ain 'or the 'irst time at the time which is the ?HI o' the times

ta en by the 'astest to )ain a lap over the others. This is a universal 'ormula 'or any number o' people runnin). Example 11: Aavi, 2huvan and Aam run around a circular path o' circum'erence 1666 meters. Aavi runs at & m/s, 2huvan runs at F m/s and Aam runs at 2 m/s. >' they start 'rom the same point and wal in the same direction. ;hen will they be 'irst to)ether a)ain7 AaviCs speed = & m/s, 2huvanCs speed = F m/s, AamCs speed = 2 m/s Time ta en 'or 2huvan to )ain a lap over Aavi = 1666 /F " & = $66 seconds Time ta en 'or 2huvan to )ain a lap over Aam = 1666/F " 2= 2$6 seconds Time ta en 'or Aavi to )ain a lap over Aam = 1666/& " 2 = $66 seconds They will be to)ether a)ain = ?HI o' $66, 2$6 and $66, which is $66 Cloc+s or ,atc-es The dial o' a cloc or watch is a circle whose circum'erence is divided into F6 e<ual parts ,called minute spaces., all the hands o' cloc which are second, minute and hour hands travel alon) this circum'erence. @ere are some important learnin)Cs on cloc s* 1. >n the cloc , the lar)er hand ,minute hand. moves F6 minute spaces, the smaller hand ,hour hand. moves only $ minute spaces, which is completion o' an hour. 2. >n each minute space the hour hand travels, the minute hand travels 12 minutes+ this is the most important concept in cloc s. !. ;hen the two hands are at ri)ht an)les, they are 1$ minute spaces apart. This happens twice every hour. &. ;hen the hands are in opposite directions, they are !6 minute spaces apart. This happens once every hour. $.
