A man complete a journey in 10 hours. He travels first half of the journey at the rate of 21 km/hr and second half at the rate of 24 km/hr. Find the total journey in km.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

We are having time and speed given, so first we will calculate the distance. Then we can get new speed for given time and distance.
Lets solve it.

Time = 50/60 hr = 5/6 hr
Speed = 48 mph
Distance = S*T = 48 * 5/6 = 40 km

New time will be 40 minutes so,
Time = 40/60 hr = 2/3 hr
Now we know,
Speed = Distance/Time
New speed = 40*3/2 kmph = 60kmph

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

We need to calculate the distance, then we can calculate the time and finally our answer.
Lets solve this,

Let the distance travelled by x km
Time = Distance/Speed

$$\begin{aligned} \frac{x}{10} - \frac{x}{15} = 2 \\ \text{[because, 2 pm - 12 noon = 2 hours]} \\ 3x - 2x = 60 \\ x = 60. Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed} \\ Time @ 10km/hr = \frac{60}{10} = 6 hours \end{aligned}$$
So 2 P.M. - 6 = 8 A.M
Robert starts at 8 A.M.

He have to reach at 1 P.M. i.e, in 5 hours

So, Speed = 60/5 = 12 km/hr

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Due to stoppages, it covers 9 km less.

Time taken to cover 9 km = (9/54) hour
= (1/6)*60 minutes
= 10 minutes

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

We know that,

$$\begin{aligned} Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed} \\ Speed = 20\text{ km/hr} = 20*\frac{5}{18}{ m/sec} \\ = \frac{50}{9}{ m/sec} \\ \text{ Time =} \left(400*\frac{9}{50}\right) \\ = 72 {sec} = 1\frac{1}{5}{ min} \end{aligned}$$

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

$$\begin{aligned} Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time} \\ = \frac{200}{24}m/sec = \frac{25}{3} m/sec \\ \frac{25}{3}*\frac{18}{5} km/hr = 30 km/hr \end{aligned}$$
