Q:

A Bus travels first half distance between two places with a speed of 40 kmph and the rest half distance with a speed of 60 kmph. The average speed of the Bus is ?

A) 48 kmph B) 50 kmph
C) 46 kmph D) 42 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 48 kmph

Explanation:

we know that speed = distance traveled/time taken
let the total distance traveled by the car is 2x km.
then time taken by it to cover first half is x/60 hour.
and for second half is x/40 hour.
Then average speed= total distance travelled / total time taken.

 

i.e. 2xx60+x40

 

=> 2x5x120

 

= 48 kmph.

Q:

Two stations A and B are 200 km apart on a straight track. One train starts from A at 7 a.m. and travels towards B at 20 kmph. Another train starts from B at 8 a.m. and travels towards A at a speed of 25 kmph. At what time will they meet?

A) 12 a.m. B) 1 p.m.
C) 11 a.m. D) 12 p.m.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 12 p.m.

Explanation:

Assume both trains meet after 'p' hours after 7 a.m.
Distance covered by train starting from A in 'p' hours = 20p km
Distance covered by train starting from B in (p-1) hours = 25(p-1)
Total distance = 200
=> 20x + 25(x-1) = 200
=> 45x = 225
=> p= 5
Means, they meet after 5 hours after 7 am, ie, they meet at 12 p.m.

Q:

Taps X and Y can fill a tank in 30 and 40 minutes respectively.Tap Z can empty the filled tank in 60 minutes.If all the three taps are kept open for one minute each,how much time will the taps take to fill the tank?

A) 48min B) 72min
C) 24min D) None of these
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 24min

Explanation:

Given taps X and Y can fill the tank in 30 and 40 minutes respectively. Therefore,

 

part filled by tap X in 1 minute = 1/30

 

part filled by tap Y in 1 minute = 1/40

 

Tap Z can empty the tank in 60 minutes. Therefore,

 

part emptied by tap Z in 1 minute = 1/60

 

Net part filled by Pipes X,Y,Z together in 1 minute = [1/30 +1/40 - 1/60] = 5/120 = 1/24

 

i.e., the tank can be filled in 24 minutes.
