  1. A plane flies along the four sides of a square field at a speed of 200, 400, 600 and 800 km/hr. Then find the average speed of plane around the square field.
    1. 394
    2. 400
    3. 414
    4. 384
  1. Correct Option: D

    Let the side of the square field be x and the average speed of plane be y

    x/200 + x/400 + x/600 + x/800 = 4x/y
    ⇒ 25x/2400 = 4x/y
    ⇒ y =384

    ∴ Average speed is 384 km/hr
