B Correct answer
Explanation

Speed = 92.4 km/hr = 92400 m / 60 min = 1540 m/min. Distance = 1540 m/min * 10 min = 15400 m.

AI explanation

Using the conversion factor to change the speed from km/hr to m/s, we multiply 92.4 by 5/18 to get 25.666 m/s. Since 10 minutes equals 600 seconds, the distance covered is speed multiplied by time, yielding 25.666 m/s * 600 s = 15400 meters. Alternatively, 10 minutes is 1/6 of an hour, so the distance in kilometers is 92.4 * (1 / 6) = 15.4 km, which equals 15400 m.
