A person crosses a 600 meter long street in 5 minutes. What is the speed in Km/hr

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Two things to give attention on this question.
First time is in minutes, we need to change it to seconds to get speed in m/sec, then we need to get the final answer in km/hr.
So lets solve this.

\begin{aligned}
Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time} \\
Distance = 650 meter \\
Time = \text{5 minutes} = 300 sec \\
Speed = \frac{600}{300} = 2 m/sec \\

=> 2*\frac{18}{5} km/hr = 7.2 km/hr
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Due to stoppages, it covers 9 km less.

Time taken to cover 9 km = (9/54) hour
= (1/6)*60 minutes
= 10 minutes

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

We know that,
\begin{aligned}
Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed} \\
Speed = 20\text{ km/hr} = 20*\frac{5}{18}{ m/sec} \\
= \frac{50}{9}{ m/sec} \\

\text{ Time =} \left(400*\frac{9}{50}\right) \\
= 72 {sec} = 1\frac{1}{5}{ min}
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

We need to calculate the distance, then we can calculate the time and finally our answer.
Lets solve this,

Let the distance travelled by x km
Time = Distance/Speed

\begin{aligned}
\frac{x}{10} - \frac{x}{15} = 2 \\
\text{[because, 2 pm - 12 noon = 2 hours]} \\

3x - 2x = 60 \\
x = 60.

Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed} \\
Time @ 10km/hr = \frac{60}{10} = 6 hours

\end{aligned}
So 2 P.M. - 6 = 8 A.M
Robert starts at 8 A.M.

He have to reach at 1 P.M. i.e, in 5 hours

So, Speed = 60/5 = 12 km/hr

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

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

Distance covered in 6 minutes =
\begin{aligned}
\frac{1}{60}*6 = \frac{1}{10} \\
= 100 meters
\end{aligned}

So distance between them after 6 minutes = 200 - 100
= 100 meters
