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.

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

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.
