A man is walking at the rate of 5 km/hr crosses a bridge in 15 minutes. The length of the bridge is

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

We need to get the answer in meters. So we will first of change distance from km/hour to meter/sec by multiplying it with 5/18 and also change 15 minutes to seconds by multiplying it with 60.

\begin{aligned}
Speed = 5* \frac{5}{18} = \frac{25}{18}m/sec \\
Time = 15*60 seconds = 900 seconds \\

Distance = Time * Speed \\
Distance = \frac{25}{18}*900 = 1250 meter
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time} \\
Distance = 750 meter \\
Time = \text{2 min 30 sec} = 150 sec \\
Speed = \frac{750}{150} = 5 m/sec \\

=> 5*\frac{18}{5} km/hr = 18 km/hr
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Number of gaps between 41 poles = 40
So total distance between 41 poles = 40*50
= 2000 meter = 2 km
In 1 minute train is moving 2 km/minute.
Speed in hour = 2*60 = 120 km/hour

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

In this type of questions we need to get the relative speed between them,
The relative speed of the boys = 5.5kmph – 5kmph
= 0.5 kmph

Distance between them is 8.5 km
Time = Distance/Speed
Time= 8.5km / 0.5 kmph = 17 hrs

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Two things to give attention on this question.
First time is in minutes, we need to change it to seconds to get speed in m/sec, then we need to get the final answer in km/hr.
So lets solve this.

\begin{aligned}
Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time} \\
Distance = 650 meter \\
Time = \text{5 minutes} = 300 sec \\
Speed = \frac{600}{300} = 2 m/sec \\

=> 2*\frac{18}{5} km/hr = 7.2 km/hr
\end{aligned}
