A train covers a distance in 50 minutes, if it runs at a speed of 48kmph on an average. Find the speed at which the train must run to reduce the time of journey to 40 minutes.

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 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}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Time taken to cover 600 km = 6 hours [because train speed is 100 km/hr]

Number of stops =
begin{aligned}
frac{600}{75} - 1 = 7 \
text{Total time on stops =}7*3 = 21 mins

end{aligned}
Total time taken by train = 6 hours 21 mins

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 D

Explanation:

Let the speeds of two trains be 7X and 8X km/hr.

\begin{aligned}
8X = \frac{400}{4} \\
=> X = 12.5 Km/hr

\end{aligned}
So speed of first train is 12.5*7 = 87.5 km/hr
