Q:

A train 125 m long passes a man, running at 4 km/hr in the same direction in which the train is going, in 10 seconds. The speed of the train is:

A) 49 kmph B) 50 kmph
C) 51 kmph D) 52 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 49 kmph

Explanation:

Speed of the train relative to man

= (125/10) m/sec = (25/2) m/sec.

[(25/2) x (18/5)] km/hr = 45 km/hr.

Let the speed of the train be 'x' km/hr.

Then, relative speed = (x - 4) km/hr.

x - 4 = 45 => x = 49 km/hr.

Q:

If there are 150 questions in a 3 hr examination. Among these questions 50 are type A problems, which requires twice as much as time be spent on the rest of the type B problems. How many minutes should be spent on type A problems ?

A) 75 min B) 82 min
C) 90 min D) 101 min
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 90 min

Explanation:

Let X = Time taken for each of Type B Problems(100 Problems)
And 2X = Time taken for each of Type A problems(50 problems)

Total time period = 3hrs = 3 x 60min = 180 minutes

100X + 50(2X) = 180
100X + 100X = 180
200X = 180 min

X = 180/200
X = 0.90 min

By convertiing into seconds,

X = 0.90 x 60 seconds
X = 54 sec

So, time taken for Part A problems is = 54 x 2 x 50 = 5400 seconds
= 5400/60sec = 90 minutes.
