A) 50 sec B) 52 sec
C) 54 sec D) 56 sec
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 56 sec

Explanation:

Speed = 9 km/hr = 9 x (5/18) m/sec = 5/2 m/sec   

Distance = (35 x 4) m = 140 m.

Time taken = 140 x (2/5) sec= 56 sec

Q:

A thief is noticed by a policeman from a distance of 200 m. The thief starts running and the policeman chases him. The thief and the policeman run at the rate of 10 km and 11 km per hour respectively. What is the distance between them after 6 minutes?

A) 100 m B) 150 m
C) 190 m D) 200 m
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 100 m

Explanation:

Relative speed of the thief and policeman  =  (11 – 10) km/hr = 1 km/hr 

Distance covered in 6 minutes  = (1/60) x 6 km   = 1/10 km = 100 m

Therefore, Distance between the thief and policeman = (200 – 100) m = 100 m.

Q:

A man walking at the rate of 5 km/hr crosses a bridge in 15 minutes. The length of the bridge (in metres) is

A) 600 B) 750
C) 1000 D) 1250
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 1250

Explanation:

speed    = (5x5/18)m/sec
             = 25/18 m/sec.


Distance covered in 15 minutes    = (25/18 x 15 x 60)m
                                                 = 1250 m.

Q:

The distance between two cities A and B is 330 Km. A train starts from A at 8 a.m. and travel towards B at 60 km/hr. Another train starts from B at 9 a.m and travels towards A at 75 Km/hr. At what time do they meet?

A) 10 a.m B) 10.30 a.m
C) 11 a.m D) 11.30 a.m
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 11 a.m

Explanation:

Suppose they meet x hrs after 8 a.m

then,

[Distance moved by first in x hrs] + [Distance moved by second in (x-1) hrs] = 330.

Therefore, 60x + 75(x-1) = 330.

 => x=3.

So,they meet at (8+3) i.e, 11a.m.

Q:

A man on tour travels first 160 km at 64 km/hr and the next 160 km at 80 km/hr. The average speed for the first 320 km of the tour is

A) 35.55 km/hr B) 36 km/hr
C) 71.11 km/hr D) 71 km/hr
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 71.11 km/hr

Explanation:

Total time taken    = (160/64 + 160/8)hrs
                           = 9/2 hrs.


Average speed    = (320 x 2/9) km.hr
                         = 71.11 km/hr.

Q:

The speed of a car increases by 2 kms after every one hour. If the distance travelling in the first one hour was 35 kms. what was the total distance travelled in 12 hours?

A) 456 kms B) 482 kms
C) 552 kms D) 556 kms
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 552 kms

Explanation:

Total distance travelled in 12 hours    =(35+37+39+.....upto 12 terms)
This is an A.P with first term, a=35, number of terms,
n= 12,d=2.
Required distance    = 12/2[2 x 35+{12-1) x 2]
=6(70+23)
= 552 kms.
