Solutions:
1).Total distance to be covered = 280 + 460 = 740 metre
:. Time taken = 740 / 7.4 = 100 second
Answer : e)
2). Speed of train = 108 kmph = [108 × (5/18)] m/ second
= 30 m/ second
If the length of train be x metre, then
Speed of train = length of train and platform / time taken à 30 = (x+365) / 21
30 × 21 = x+365 à 630 = x+365
x = 630 – 365 = 265 metre
Answer : c)
3). Speed of train = length of train and platform / time taken in crossing
Here, the length of platform is not given. Hence cannot be determined.
Answer : d)
4). Speed f goods train
= length of (platform + goods train) / time taken in crossing = (220 + 500) / 36 m/sec
= 20 m/ sec = (20 × 18) / 5 kmph
= 72 kmph
Answer : b)
5). Let the length of each train be x metre. Relative speed = (46 – 36) kmph = 10 kmph
=( (10 × 5)/18) m /sec = (25/9) m /sec
Now (x + x) / (25 / 9) = 36 à (25/9) × 36 = 2x
2x = 100 à x = 50 metre
Answer : a)
6). Let the length f platform be x metre. Speed = 90 kmph
= [(90 × 5)/18 ] m/ sec = 25 m / sec
Time = 1 minute = 60 seconds
:. 2x / 25 = 60 à 2x = 25 × 60
x = (25 × 60) / 2 = 750metre.
Answer : a)
7). Length of train A = x metre
Speed of the train
:. x/18 = (x + 157.5) / 39 à 13x = 6x + 157.5 × 6
7x = 945 à x = 945 / 7 = 135 metre
:. Length of train B =[ (135/2) + 2 × 157.5] metre
= (67.5 + 315) metre = 382.5 metre
Answer : a)
8). Speed of train = 222 / 6 = 37 m /sec
If the speed of man be x m / sec, then 220 / (37 -x) = 10
220 = 370 – 10x à 10x = 370 – 220 = 150
X = 15 m /sec
Answer : a)
9). If the person starts at 7am from A, he will cross the trains starting from B at 4am, 5am, 6am, 7am, 8am, 9am, 10am.
Answer : c)
10). Speed of car = x kmph
Speed of train = 3x / 2 kmph
:. ( 75 / x) – [75 / (3x/2)] = 12.5/60
75 [(1/x) – (2/3x)] = 5/24 à 75 [(3-2) / 3x] = 5/24
75 / 3x = 5/24 à 15 × 8 = x
:. x = 120 kmph
Answer : c)
