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 : A At the time of meeting, Let the distance travelled by the second bus be xkm Then distance covered by the 1st bus is (x+300)km x/120= (x+300) /150 150x = 120(x+300) 150x = 120x +36000 30x = ... X=36000/30 X=1200 So the distance covered between A & B =(x+x+300) =(1200+1200+300) =2700km.

Last Answer : ANSWER: D  Explanation:  Total distance covered to cross each other = 200 + 160  = 360m  If the direction is given in the same direction then we subtract  Relative speed of two trains (same direction) = ... * 3 / 20  = 54sec  Time taken by the faster train to cross the slower train is 54sec.

Description : A train 200m in length, travels at 120 km/hr. In what time it will pass a boy who is walking at 12km an hour. a) against(opposite) it: b) in the same direction? A) 5.4,6.66 B) 7.2,5.2 C) 3.5,6 D) 12,16

Last Answer : ANSWER: A  Explanation: I) Speed of the train = 120 km/hr  Speed of the boy = 12 km/hr  Relative speed = (120 + 12) km/hr  Convert km/hr into m/s  132 km/hr = (132 * 5/ 18)m/s  = 36.66 m/s  Time = ... km/hr = (108 * 5 / 18)m/s  = 30 sec  Time = distance / speed  = 200 / 30  = 6.66 sec

Last Answer : ANSWER: A Explanation: We know as the train and the running person are moving in opposite direction,therir speed values are added to find the relative speed. Relative speed = speed of mail train + speed of running ... [ from the length of the mail train is the distance] = 220 / 36.66 = 6 sec.

Description : A motorboat can cover 80 km upstream and 120 km downstream together in 26 hours. Also it can cover 100 km upstream and 144 km downstream together in 32 hours. What is the speed of the motorboat in still water? A) 12 km/hr B) 15km/hr C) 8.5km/hr D) 19km/hr 

Last Answer : ANSWER :C Explanation:  Upstream speed in both cases is 80 and 100.  Ratio is 80 : 100 = 8:10 = 4 : 5.  So let times in both cases be 4x and 5x  Downstream speed in both cases is 120 and 144 resp.  Ratio is ... 12 km/hr  So speed of boat = 1/2 * (5+12) =17/2km/hr  speed of boat = 8.5 km/hr

Description : A train overtakes two persons walking along a railway track. The first one walks at 4.5 km/hr. The other one walks at 5.4 km/hr. The train needs 8.4 and 8.5 seconds respectively to overtake them. What is the speed ... as the train? A.59 km/hr B.65 km/hr C.70 km/hr D.81 km/hr E. None of these

Last Answer : Answer-D (81 km/hr) Explanation4.5 km/hr =(4.5 x 5/18)m/sec =5m/4sec = 1.25 m/sec, and 5.4 km/hr =(5.4 x 5/18)m/sec =3m/2sec = 1.5 m/sec. Let the speed of the train be x m/sec. Then, (x - 1.25) ... - 12.75 => 0.1x = 2.25 => x = 22.5 Therefore Speed of the train =(22.5 x18 /5)km/hr = 81 km/hr.

Last Answer : ANSWER:D Explanation:  Let the speed of the slower train be x' m/sec  The speed of the sfaster train = 3x m/s  Relative speed = (x +3x)m/sec  = 4x m/sec  50 + 50 / 4 = 4x  100 / 4 = 4x  100 = 16x  x = 100 ... the faster train = 3 * 25 / 4  = 75 / 4 m/s = (75/4 *18 /5)km/hr  = 67.5 km/hr

Description : Two trains A and B are moving in opposite directions at 180 km/hr and 270 km/hr. their lengths are 3.30 km and 2.7 km respectively. The time taken by the slower train to cross the faster train in second is. A) 48sec B) 13 sec C) 38sec D) 24sec

Last Answer : ANSWER: A Explanation: Speed of 1st train = 180 km/hr  Speed of 2nd train = 270 km/hr  Relative speed = (180 + 270)km/hr  = 450 km/hr  = (450 * 5 / 180)m/s  = (2250 / 18)m/s  =125 m/s  Distance covered = (3.30 + 2.70)km  = 6km = 6000m  Required time = 6000 / 125  = 48sec

Description : A passenger train 165 m long which is running at a speed of 30km/hr. In what time will it pass a man who is running at a speed of 3 km/hr in the opposite direction. In which the train is moving. A)14 sec B) 17sec C)16sec D)18sec

Last Answer : ANSWER: D Explanation:  Speed of the train = 30 km/hr  Speed of man = 3 km/hr  Length of the train = 165m If direction is given in opposite direction then we add both speed.  That is (30 + 3 )= 33 km/hr ... can easily get the distance of m/s  So it cover 165 m  i.e., 165 * 6 /55 = 18 sec.
