Solution

The correct option is B 270 kmph
Here,
Speed = 4320 km
Time =16h

Distance travelled by aeroplane in 16 hrs = 4320 km
Distance travelled by aeroplane in 1 hr = 4320 / 16 km
= 270 km

Speed is nothing but distance travelled by an object per hr hence 270 km per hr is the speed as it is the distance travelled by aeroplane in 1 hr
