Q:

'K' cycled from A to B at 10 kmph and returned at the rate of 9 kmph. 'L' cycled both ways at 12 kmph. In the whole journey 'L' took 10 minutes less than 'K'. Find the distance between A and B ?

A) 32.1 km B) 15.23 km
C) 3.75 km D) 32.1 m
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 3.75 km

Explanation:

Let 'd' be the distance between A and B
K -time = d/10 + d/9 = 19d/90 hours
L -time = 2d/12 = d/6 hours
We know that, 10 min = 1/6 hours
Thus, time difference between K and L is given as 10 minutes.
=> 19d/90 - d/6 = 1/6
=> (19d-15d)/90 = 1/6
=> 4d/90 = 1/6
Thus,
d= 15/4 km = 3.75 km.

hence the distance between A and B is 3.75 km.

A clock is started at 11 a.m. By 600 seconds past 6 p.m, the hour hand has turned through ?

A) 155 degrees B) 175 degrees
C) 205 degrees D) 215 degrees
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 215 degrees

Explanation:

The total angle traced by the hour hand is the angle traced in 7 hours and 10 minutes.
We know that the angle traced by the hour hand in one hour is 30º and in one minute is 1/2º.
Therefore, (30º x 7) + (10 x 1/2º) = 215º is the angle traced by the hour hand.
