Description : The width of a rectangular park is 10/21 of its length. If the area of the park is 3360 sq m, then what is the difference between the length and the width of the park? a) 40m b) 44m c) 48m d) 52m e) 56m

Last Answer : Let the length of the park be x metres. Width = x × 10 / 21 = 10x / 21 Area = x × 10x / 21 = 3360 or, x^2 = 3360 × 21 / 10 = 7056 or, x = 84 Hence, length = x = 84m and width = 84 × 10 / 21 = 40 metres Difference = 84 – 40 = 44 metres Answer: b)

Description : Two trains are running in opposite directions with the same speed. If the length of each train is 120 metres and they cross each other in 12 seconds, then the speed of each train (in km/hr) is: A.12 kmph B.24 kmph C.36 kmph D.48 kmph E.None of these

Last Answer : Answer – C (36 kmph) Explanation – Let the speed of each train be x m/sec. Then, relative speed of the two trains = 2x m/sec. So, 2x = (120 + 120)/12 ⇔ 2x = 20 ⇔ x = 10. ∴ Speed of each train = 10 m/sec = [10 x 18/5] km/hr = 36 km/hr

Last Answer : Answer – B (50 km/hr) Explanation – Let speed be S Relative speed = total lengths/time [ in this case man length is neglible compare to train so neglected] (S – 5) x 5/18 = 125 /10 S- 5 = (125/10)x(18/5) S-5 = 45 S=50 km/hr
