Q:

When does fog usually form in inlets and bays?

Answer

Fog will form if the air temperature drops below the dew point, which is the capacity of the air to hold moisture in suspension. If the temperature drop far enough the moisture content will exceed saturation point, causing it to form visible water vapour.


It happens in the early mornings or late after noons.

Q:

Buses start from a bus terminal with a speed of 20 km/hr at intervals of 10 minutes. What is the speed of a man coming from the opposite direction towards the bus terminal if he meets the buses at intervals of 8 minutes?

A) 5 kmph B) 6 kmph
C) 7.5 kmph D) 8 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 5 kmph

Explanation:

Let p be the speed of man in kmph

According to the given data in the question,

Distance travelled by bus in 10 min with 20 kmph == Distance travelled by man in 8 min with (20 + p) kmph in opposite direction

=> 20 x 10/60 = 8/60 (20 + p)

=> 200 = 160 + 8p

=> p = 40/8 = 5 kmph.

Q:

An Engine length 1000 m moving at 10 m/s. A bird is flying from engine to end with 'x' m/s and coming back at '2x' m/s. Take total time of bird travelling as 187.5 s. Find x and 2x in km/hr ?

A) 21.4 and 42.8 B) 25.2 and 50.4
C) 31.4208 and 62.8416 D) 33.12 and 66.24
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 31.4208 and 62.8416

Explanation:

Birds speeds in mtrs/sec is 'x' and '2x' .
While flying from Engine to end, relative speed = (x+10) m/sec
from end to engine, flying speed = (2x - 10) mtr/sec
so
1000/(x+10) + 1000/(2x-10) = 187.5 secs
solving it, we get
so x = 8.728 m/sec and 2x= 17.456 m/sec

x = 31.4208 km/hr and 2x = 62.8416 km/hr.

Q:

A boat travels 72 km downstream in 8 hours and 84 km upstream in 12 hours. Find the speed of the boat in still water and the speed of the water current ?

A) 9 and 3 kmph B) 6 and 7 kmph
C) 8 and 1 kmph D) 7 and 2 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 8 and 1 kmph

Explanation:

Downstream speed = 72km/8hrs  = 9 kmph
upstream speed = 84km/12hrs = 7 kmph
speed of boat = avg of downstream and upstream speeds
speed of boat = (9+7)/2kmph = 8 kmph.
current speed = half of the difference of downstream and upstream speeds
currend speed = (9-7)/2kmph = 1 kmph
