TIME AND DISTANCE : IMPORTANT FORMULAS

Speed, Time and Distance:
Speed = Distance/Time
Time = Distance/ speed
Distance = (Speed x Time)

km/hr to m/sec conversion:
x km/hr = x X (5/18) m/sec.

m/sec to km/hr conversion:
x m/sec = x X (18/5) km/hr.

If the ratio of the speeds of A and B is a : b, then the ratio of the
the times taken by then to cover the same distance is 1/a : 1/b or b : a.

Suppose a man covers a certain distance at x km/hr and an equal distance at y km/hr. Then,
the average speed during the whole journey is: [2xy/(x + y)] km/hr.
