Problem G. 632. (March 2018)

G. 632. A plane, which is flying at a speed of 900 km/h, uses 4 litres of fuel (kerosene) in each second. What distance is covered in each minute by that car which has a fuel consumption of 6.4 litres of petrol per 100 km and which needs the same amount of petrol in 5 hours as the amount of kerosene consumed by the plane while it covers a distance of one kilometre?

Megoldás. A repülő 1 óra, vagyis 3600 másodperc alatt 900 km-t tesz meg, tehát 4 másodperc alatt tesz meg 1 km-t, és ezalatt 16 liter kerozint fogyaszt. Az autó a 16 liter benzint \(\displaystyle \frac{16}{6{,}4}\cdot 100~\rm km=250 ~\rm km\)-en fogyasztja el, és ha ezt 5 óra alatt teszi meg, akkor a sebessége 50 km/h, vagyis 833 m/perc.
