Best answer
Correct Answer - Option 3 : 56 sec

GIVEN:

Side of the square field = 35 m and speed of the boy = 9 km/hr = 9 × 5/18 = 2.5 m/s

FORMULA USED:  

Perimeter of the square = 4 × Side and Distance = Speed × Time

CALCULATION:

Perimeter of the square = 4 × Side

⇒ 4 × 35

⇒ 140 m 

Distance covered = Perimeter of the square field = 140 m

⇒ Time taken = Distance/Speed

⇒ Time taken = 140/2.5 

⇒ 56 sec

∴ Time taken to run around the square filed = 56 sec
