TSD Q13

The petrol consumption rate of a new model car 'Palto' depends on its speed and may be described by the graph below.

      Manasa makes a 200 km trip from Mumbai to Pune at a steady speed of 60 km/hr.

      What is the volume of petrol consumed for the journey?
a. 12.5 L
b. 13.33 L
c. 16 L

       d. 19.75 L


At 60 kmph, time taken to reach the destination = 200/60 = 3.33 hours.

Fuel consumed per hour at 60 kmph = 4 liters.

Therefore, total fuel consumed = 3.33*4 = 13.33 liters.
