A train starts its journey from a stationary position and after running for 1 minute in parallel, 30 m / s speed is obtained. Determine the speed of the train in 1 minute ?

1 Answer

Answer :

Here , the initial velocity , u = 0 m / s end velocity , v = 30 m / s time , t = 1 min = 60 sec we know , acceleration , a = (v- u) / t = (30- 0) / 60 = 0.5 m / s ^ 2 Acceleration = 0.5 m / s ^ 2

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

Description : A 270 m long train running at the speed of 120 kmph crosses another train running in opposite direction at the speed of 80 kmph in 9 seconds. What is the length of the other train? A.180 B.230 C.245 D.235 E.None of these

Last Answer : Answer – B (230) Explanation – Relative speed = total lenghths /time [120 +80] x5/18 ={ 270 + other train length (say L) } / 9 sec (x5/18 to convert km/hr to m/sec ) 200 x (5/18) x9 = 270 + L 500 = 270 +L L=230 m Note: always do cutting ,avoid solving exact

Description : A train M speeding with 60km/hr crooses another train N, running in the same direction in 1 min. If the lengths of the trains M and N be 50m and 100m respectively. What is the speed of train N? A) 15 km/hr B) 61km/hr C) 51km/hr D) 50k/hr

Last Answer : ANSWER: C Explanation:  Let the speed of be train N be ‘x’km/hr  Speed of M relative to N = (60 – x)km/hr  = (60-x) * 5/18]m/s = (300 – 5x / 18)m/s  150 / (300 – 5x / 18) =60  2700/300-5x=60  2700=18000-300x 300x=15300  x= 153/3  x=51km/hr  Therefore the speed of the train is 51 km/hr

Last Answer : ANSWER:D Explanation: speed of the train = 35.5 km/hr speed of the person = 5 km/hr As the train and the running person move in same direction, their speed values are subtracted to find the relative ...  =10.62 sec  Hence, the time taken by the train to cross the running person is 10.62 sec

Description : A train 330 m long passes a man, running at 18 km/hr in the direction opposite to that of the train in 18 seconds. The speed of the train is. A) 38 km/hr B) 29km/hr C) 48km/hr D) 44km/hr

Last Answer : ANSWER: C Explanation:  Length of the train = 330 m  Speed = distance / time.  Speed of the train relative to man = 330 / 18 m/s  = 110 / 6 m/s  Convert m/s into km/hr  Therefore 110 / 6 m/s = (110 / ... (x +18) = 66 km/hr  X + 18 = 66  X = 48  Therefore the speed of the train is 48 km/hr.

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.

What is the speed of train ... travels at 660 m/s? a) 62 km/hr b) 54 km/hr c) 48 km/hr d) 27 km/hr

Last Answer : B Actual time between the two shots being fired = 45 minutes. If a girl was stationary she would have heard the shots after 44 minutes. But since the train was moving towards the source, she heard the second shot after ... = (15 *18/5) km/hr =54 km/hr Hence the speed of the train is 54 km/hr

Description : A 250 m goods train takes 50 s to cross a person who is going in the same direction with the speed of 8 km/h. After crossing that person, the train can reach next station in 2 hr. How long that person takes to reach that station after being crossed by them? A) 2 ½ hr B) 5hr C) 3 1/2hr D) 1hr

Last Answer : ANSWER:A Explanation:  Speed of the person = 8 kmph  = (8*5/18)m/s  = 20/9 m/s  Then relative speed of train = (x-20/9)m/s  As train takes 50 sec to cross the person  Therefore 50 =250/(x-20/ ... 20,000 m  = 20 km Thus time taken by the person to cover the distance of 20km= 20/8 hr=2 ½ hr
