being between S and Q, such that 3PR = TQ and RS = 2ST. One day, an
accident occurred on the highway at T. The medical facilities at Q, R, S and T
were poor. Hence, the victim's friend called up a hospital at P for an
ambulance. The ambulance started from P at 12:00 noon and reached R at
12:10 p.m. It then doubled its speed for the remaining part of the trip and
returned to P at 2:10 p.m. Find the initial speed of the ambulance.
