Question Detail
Robert is travelling on his cycle and has calculated to reach point A at 2 P.M. if he travels at 10 kmph, he will reach there at 12 noon if he travels at 15 kmph. At what speed must he travel to reach A at 1 P.M.?
- 9 km/hour
- 10 km/hour
- 11 km/hour
- 12 km/hour
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
1. A man on tour travels first 160 km at 64 km/hr and the next 160 km at 80 km/hr. Find the average speed for first 320 km of tour.
- 70.11 km/hr
- 71.11 km/hr
- 72.11 km/hr
- 73.11 km/hr
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
We know Time = Distance/speed
So total time taken =
\begin{aligned}
\left(\frac{160}{64}+\frac{160}{80}\right) \\
= \frac{9}{2} hours \\
\text{ Time taken for 320 Km = } \\
320*\frac{2}{9} = 71.11 km/hr
\end{aligned}
2. A person crosses a 600 meter long street in 5 minutes. What is the speed in Km/hr
- 6.2 km/hr
- 7.2 km/hr
- 8.2 km/hr
- 9.2 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}
3. How many minutes does Aditya take to cover a distance of 400 m, if he runs at a speed of 20 km/hr
- \begin{aligned} 1\frac{1}{5} min\end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 2\frac{1}{5} min\end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 3\frac{1}{5} min\end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 4\frac{1}{5} min\end{aligned}
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}
4. A man is walking at the rate of 5 km/hr crosses a bridge in 15 minutes. The length of the bridge is
- 1000 meters
- 1050 meters
- 1200 meters
- 1250 meters
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
We need to get the answer in meters. So we will first of change distance from km/hour to meter/sec by multiplying it with 5/18 and also change 15 minutes to seconds by multiplying it with 60.
\begin{aligned}
Speed = 5* \frac{5}{18} = \frac{25}{18}m/sec \\
Time = 15*60 seconds = 900 seconds \\
Distance = Time * Speed \\
Distance = \frac{25}{18}*900 = 1250 meter
\end{aligned}
5. 2 trains starting at the same time from 2 stations 200 km apart and going in opposite direction cross each other at a distance of 110 km from one of the stations. What is the ratio of their speeds ?
- 11:9
- 13:9
- 17:9
- 21:9
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
We know total distance is 200 Km
If both trains crossed each other at a distance of 110 km then one train covered 110 km and other 90 km [110+90=200km]
So ratio of their speed = 110:90 = 11:9
