- Q10. If a person travels from point A to point B at 20 km/h and returns at 30 km/h, calculate the average speed without using pen and paper.
- Ans.
The average speed can be calculated by taking the harmonic mean of the two speeds.
To calculate the harmonic mean, divide the sum of the speeds by the reciprocal of the sum of their reciprocals.
In this case, the harmonic mean can be calculated as 2/(1/20 + 1/30) = 24 km/h.

The minimum number of steps to find the defective ball is 2.
Divide the 8 balls into 3 groups of 3, 3, and 2 balls.
Compare the weights of the two groups of 3 balls.
If one group is heavier, divide it into 2 balls and compare their weights.
If the two balls have different weights, the heavier ball is the defective one.
If the two balls have the same weight, the remaining ball in the first group of 3 is the defective one.
