- 4The time (in hours) taken to travel a fixed distance is inversely proportional to the average speed (in km/h), so , where is the distance in km. When , .(a)Find the value of , and hence find when .[4 marks](b)A second, longer journey covers 240 km, with time hours related to average speed km/h by .[4 marks]
Find the average speed needed to complete this journey in hours.(c)A cyclist's speed (km/h) is directly proportional to the square root of her power output (watts), so . When W, km/h.[5 marks]
Find the value of , calculate the speed when W, and hence find the time (to the nearest 0.1 hour) to complete the 180 km journey from part (a) at this speed.Total for question 4: 13 marks
