Question Detail
Robert is travelling on his cycle and has calculated to reach point A at 2 P.M. if he travels at 10 kmph, he will reach there at 12 noon if he travels at 15 kmph. At what speed must he travel to reach A at 1 P.M.?
- 9 km/hour
- 10 km/hour
- 11 km/hour
- 12 km/hour
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
1. The ratio between the speeds of two trains is 7: 8. If the second train runs 400 kms in 4 hours, then the speed of the first train is ?
- 83.5 km/hr
- 84.5 km/hr
- 86.5 km/hr
- 87.5 km/hr
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
2. Robert is travelling on his cycle and has calculated to reach point A at 2 P.M. if he travels at 10 kmph, he will reach there at 12 noon if he travels at 15 kmph. At what speed must he travel to reach A at 1 P.M.?
- 9 km/hour
- 10 km/hour
- 11 km/hour
- 12 km/hour
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
3. A man is walking at the rate of 5 km/hr crosses a bridge in 15 minutes. The length of the bridge is
- 1000 meters
- 1050 meters
- 1200 meters
- 1250 meters
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}
4. A person travels equal distances with speed of 3 km/hr, 4 km/hr and 5 km/hr and takes a total of 47 minutes. Find the total distane
- 3 km
- 4 km
- 6 km
- 9 km
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Let the distance be 3x km,
then,
\begin{aligned}
\frac{x}{3} +\frac{x}{4} +\frac{x}{5} = \frac{47}{60} \\
\frac{47x}{60} =\frac{47}{60} \\
x = 1
\end{aligned}
So total distance = 3*1 = 3 Km
5. A car moves at 80 km/hr. What is the speed of the car in meters per second ?
- \begin{aligned} 20\frac{2}{9} m\sec \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 22\frac{2}{9} m\sec \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 24\frac{2}{9} m\sec \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 26\frac{2}{9} m\sec \end{aligned}
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
\begin{aligned}
Speed = \left(80*\frac{5}{18}\right) m/sec \\
= \frac{200}{9} m/sec \\
= 22\frac{2}{9} m\sec
\end{aligned}
