  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    A man rows downstream 20 km andupstream 12 km, taking 4 hours each time. What will be thevelocity of current?

    Solution

    Let the speed of man is u and thatof current is v

    Downstream speed will be u + v

    Upstream speed will be u − v

    He travels 20 km downstreamin 4 hrs

    So, downstream speed is 20/4 = 5 km/hr

    Similarly, upstream speed will be 12/4 =3 km/hr

    So, u + v = 5

    u – v = 3
    Subtracting both the equations;

    2v = 2

    v = 1 km/hr

    Therefore,option a is correct.

  • Question 2
    1 / -0

    Athis usual rowing rate, Rahul can travel 14 miles downstream in a certain riverin 7 hoursless than it takes him to travel the same distance upstream. But if he coulddouble his usual rowing rate for his 28 -mile round trip, the downstream 14 miles would then take only one hourless than the upstream 14 miles.What is the speed of the current in miles per hour?

    Solution


    14x-y-14x+y=7
    14x+14y-14x+14yx2-y2=7
    28y=7(x2-y2)
    x2=4y+y2..(1)
    And,14(2x-y)-14(2x+y)=1
    28y=(4x2-y2)
    x2=28y+y24..(2)

    Now, comparing (1) and (2) we get,
    4y+y2=28y+y24
    16y+4y2=28y+y2
    3y2=12y
    y=4
    "The speed of the current is"=4 mph

    Therefore,option c is correct.

  • Question 3
    1 / -0

    A motorboat takes 2 hours to travel adistance of 12 km down the current and it takes 4 hours totravel the same distance against the current. What is the speed of the boat instill water in kmph?

    Solution

    Let x= speed of the boat in stillwater
    and y= speed of the current
    Down speed =(x + y)
    Up speed =(x−y)
    According to the problem, we have

    12x+y=2 and 12x-y=4

    2x +2y = 12

    x + y = 6 … (1)

    4x – 4y = 12

    x – y = 3 … (2)

    Adding equation (1) and (2)

    2x = 9

    = x = 4.5

    Therefore, speed of boat in still water is 4.5 km/h.

    Therefore,option c is correct.

  • Question 4
    1 / -0

    The average speed of a train is 30% less onthe return journey than on the onward journey. The train halts for half an hourat the destination station before starting on the return journey. If the totaltime taken for the to and fro journey is 25 hours, covering a distance of 1200km, the speed of the train on the return journey is

    Solution

    Train was halted for half an hour.

    So, total time taken in Journey = 25 - (1/2) =24.5 hours.

    Average speed in Whole Journey = 1000/24.5 =48.9 km/hr.

    The average speed on return journey is 30%less than onward journey.

    Therefore, ratio of average speed of onwardand return journey,

    = 100/70 = 10/7.

    Let average speed of onward journey = 10x.

    Average speed on return journey = 7x.

    Average speed on whole journey = (10x +7x)/2

    48.9 = (10x + 7x)/2

    97.8 = 17x

    x = 5.75.

    Average speed on return = 7x = 7 × 5.75 = 40.25km/h

    = 40 km/h(approx.)

    Therefore,option a is correct.

  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    A boat running downstream covers a distanceof 30 km in 3 hrs while it covers the same distanceupstream in 6 hrs. Then speed of the boat in still water is

    Solution

    Downstream speed = 30/2 = 10 km/h

    Upstream speed  = 30/6 = 5 km/h
    Speed of boat in still water =Upstream + Downstream / 2
    10+52 = 
    7.5km/h

    Therefore, option d is correct.

  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    Audi car crosses 6 stationsevery 20 minutes. how many stations will it pass in 1 hour?

    Solution

    6 stations = 20 minutes
    1 hour = 60 minutes.
    Therefore for 1 hour Audi car crosses = 

    6×6020

    = 6 × 3 = 18 stations.

    Therefore, option c is correct.

  • Question 7
    1 / -0

    A car travels 84 km in 2 hrs.The distance that can be travelled by the car in 4 hrs. is:

    Solution

    Distance travelled by car in 3hrs=81km

    So, speed of the car = 84/2 = 42 km

    Distance travelled by car in 4 hrs = 42 ×4 = 168 km

    Therefore, option c is correct.

  • Question 8
    1 / -0

    If a person travels 75 km in 5 hoursin a car, then the speed of the car is

    Solution

    Given a person travels 75 kmin 5 hrs in a car.

    Then speed of the car is distance/time = 75/5 =15 km/ hr

    Therefore, option d is correct.

  • Question 9
    1 / -0

    A man makes a trip by automobile at an averagespeed of 60 km/hr. He returns over the same route at an average speed of 30km/hr. His average speed for the entire trip is:

    Solution

    Let distance ne x

    Speed in 1st trip = 60km/hr

     Time taken x/60hrs.

    speed in return trip = 30 km/hr

     Time taken = x/30hrs.

    Avg. speed =Total Distance /Total time

    =x+xx/60+x/30

    =2x×60x+2x
    =40

    Therefore, option a is correct.

  • Question 10
    1 / -0

    Joseph travelled a distance of 30 km on his first trip. On a later trip, travelling twice times as fast, he covered 600 km. Compared with his time for the first trip, the time he took for the second was

    Solution

    Let the speed of Joseph in his first trip be x km per hour.

     Timetaken in his first trip

    = 30x hrs.

    and the speed of Joseph in his second trip = 2x km perhour

     Timetaken in his second trip

    = 600/2x = 300/x hrs.

    time taken in second triptime taken in first trip=800x80x=10

    Therefore,option c is correct.

  • Question 11
    1 / -0

    A bike travelsa distance of 220 km at a constant speed. If the speed of the bike is increasedby 2 kmph, the journey would have taken 1 hours less. What is the speed of thebike?

    Solution

    Let thespeed of the bike be x kmph.
    Clearly,220x-220x+2=1
    =220(x+2)-220xx(x+2)=1

    = 220x + 440 – 220x = 1 (x(x+2))

    = 440 = x2 + 2x

    = x2 + 2x – 440

    X = 20

    Therefore, option a is correct.

  • Question 12
    1 / -0

    A train which is moving at an average speedof 30 km/h, reaches its destination on time. When its average speedreduces to 25 km/h, then it reaches its destination 10 minuteslate. The distance travelled by the train is?

    Solution

    Let the time taken by trainbe t hrs.

    Then, 

    30t=25(t+1060)

    30t=25t+256

    5t=256

    t=56hrs

    Required length of the total journey (d) =s×t

    = 30×56=25 km

     The distance travelled by thetrain is 25 km.

    Therefore, option b is correct.

  • Question 13
    1 / -0

    The speed of a bus is 48 km/hr. Howmuch distance will travel in 20 second?

    Solution

    Speed of Bus= 48 km/hr

    1000×4860×60m/sec

    = 13.3 m/sec

    Distance travelled in 1 sec= 10 m

    Distance travelled in 10 sec = 10 × 13.3 = 266 m

    Therefore,option c is correct.

  • Question 14
    1 / -0

    How much time does it take to cover a distanceof 700 m at a speed of 63 km/hr?

    Solution

    Speed = distance / time

    time = Distance/Speed

    Given, S = 63 km/hr 

    = 63000/3600 m/sec = 17.5 m/sec

     time = 700/17.5 = 40 sec

    Therefore, option a is correct.

  • Question 15
    1 / -0

    A train running at the speed of 60 km/hr crosses a pole in 9 seconds. What is the length of the train?

    Solution

    Speed \(=\left(60 \times \frac{5}{18}\right) \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{sec}=\frac{50}{3} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{sec}\)

    Length of the train \(=(\text { Speed } \times \text { Time })\)

    \(\therefore\) Length of the train \(=\left(\frac{50}{3} \times 9\right) m=150 m\)
