In this type of question, we will first calculate the distance covered in given time.

Distance covered will be : Number of revolutions x Circumference 

So we will be having distance and time, from which we can calculate the speed. 

Radius of wheel = 70 / 2 = 35 cm

Distance covered in 40 revolutions will be 40*circumferene=40*2πr=40*2*227*35=8800cm = 88 m

Distance covered in 1 sec  = 8810=8.8m/s=8.8*185km/hr=31.68km/hr

Gypsies are believed to have arrived in Europe from northern India in the 1400s. They were called Gypsies because Europeans thought they came from Egypt. This ethnic minority is made up of distinct groups called “tribes” or “nations.” Most of the Gypsies in German-occupied Europe belonged to the Sinti and Roma tribes.

Romani (romani ćhib) Romani, or Romany, is an Indo-Aryan language spoken by about 5-6 million Roma people throughout Europe and the USA. The largest concentrations of Roma people live in Turkey, Spain and Romania. In English these people are often called Gypsies.

The above given sequence follows a pattern that,

$$\begin{gathered} 1 \\ 22 = 4 \\ 33 = 27 \\ 44 = 256 \\ 55 = 3125 \\ 66 = 46656 \\ and so on... \end{gathered}$$

Therefore, the next two numbers in the given sequence is 256 & 3125.

As the pipes are operating alternatively, thus their 2 minutes job is = 14 + 16 = 512 

In the next 2 minutes the pipes can fill another 512 part of cistern. 

Therefore, In 4 minutes the two pipes which are operating alternatively will fill 512 + 512 = 56Remaining part = 1 - 56 = 16 

Pipe A can fill 14 of the cistern in 1 minute 

Pipe A can fill 16 of the cistern in = 23 min 

Therefore, Total time taken to fill the Cistern  

4 + 23 minutes.

Here the given numbers are related in such a manner that,

$$\begin{gathered} 52 = 25 \\ 5+12 + 1 = 37 \\ Similarly, \\ 72 = 49 \\ 7+12 + 1 = 64 + 1 = 65 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, 25 : 37 :: 49 : 65.
