Q:

A jogger running at 9 kmph alongside a railway track is 240 metres ahead of the engine of a 120 metre long train running at 45 kmph in the same direction. In how much time will the train pass the jogger  ?

A) 10 sec B) 48 sec
C) 36 sec D) 56 sec
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 36 sec

Explanation:

Given speed of jogger = 9 kmph
Speed of train = 45 kmph
As they are in same direction,
Relative speed = 45 - 9 = 36 kmph = 36x5/18 = 10 m/s
Distance = 240 + 120 = 360 mts
Time = distance/speed = 360/10 = 36 sec.

Q:

K is 50% faster than L. If L starts at 9 A.M. and K starts at 10 A.M. L travels at a speed of 50 km/hr. If L and K are 300 kms apart, The time when they meet when they travel in opposite direction is ?

A) 12 pm B) 1 pm
C) 11 am D) 11:30 am
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 12 pm

Explanation:

let 't' be the time after which they met since L starts.

Given K is 50% faster than L

50 t + 1.5*50(t-1) = 300

50 t +75 t = 300 + 75

t = 375 / 125 = 3 hrs past the time that L starts

So they meet at (9 + 3)hrs = 12:00 noon.

Q:

The length, breadth and height of a room are in the ratio 7:3:1. If the breadth and height are doubled while the length is halved, then by what percent the total area of the 4 walls of the room will be increased  ?

A) 90% B) 88%
C) 85% D) 84%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 90%

Explanation:

Let length, breadth and height of the room be 7, 3, 1 unit respectively.

Area of walls = 2(l+b)xh = 2(7+3)x1 = 20 sq. unit.

Now, length, breadth and height of room will become 3.5, 6 and 2 respectively. 

Area of walls = 2(l+b)xh = 2(3.5+6)x2 = 38 sq. unit. 

% Increase in the area of walls = (38-20)x100/20 = 90%.
