Answers :
1) Answer: C
They meet x hours after 10 a.m.
Distance covered by A in x hours = 40x km
Distance covered by B in (x – 1) hours = 50 * (x – 1) km
40x + 50 * (x – 1) = 310
40x + 50x – 50 = 310
9x = 360
x = 4
They meet at 2 p.m.
2) Answer: D
Length of the train = x
Speed of train = y
450 + x = y * 5/18 * 28
4050 + 9x = 70y
x = y * 5/18 * 10
9x = 25y
4050 + 25y = 70y
y = 90 kmph
x = 250 m
Required time = [(250 + 200)/90] * 18/5 = 18 seconds
3) Answer: B
Required time = (300 + 360)/((60 + 72) * 5/18)
= 18 seconds
4) Answer: B
Length of train A = x
Length of Tunnel = 2x
Speed of train A = y
x + 2x = y * 5/18 * 18
3x = 5y
x+ 200 = (y + 60) * 5/18 * 9
2x + 400 = 5y + 300
2x + 400 = 3x + 300
x = 100
Length of tunnel = 2 * 100 = 200 m
5) Answer: C
Time taken by the trains to cross each other = (t1 * x + t2 * y)/(x + y)
= (6 * 8 + 6 * 5)/(8 + 5)
= (48 + 30)/13
= 6 seconds
6) Answer: D
Distance = time * speed
Let the time taken by them to meet each other be x then,
95x – 80x = 210
x = 14 h
Required distance = (80 + 95) * 14 = 2450 km
7) Answer: D
Total length (length of train + length of platform) = 140 + 160 = 300 m
Speed of train A = 300/10 = 30 m/s
Speed of train B = 130/100 x 30 = 39 m/s
Time taken by train B to cover the distance = (152 + 160)/39 = 8 seconds
8) Answer: A
Let the length of train A be x,
Length of train B = 2x
Speed = Distance/Time
Required ratio = (x/15): (2x/25) = 5: 6
9) Answer: C
Length of train = x
Speed of train = y
x + 450 = y * 5/18 * 36
x + 450 = 10y
x = y * 5/18 * 18
x = 5y
5y + 450 = 10y
5y = 450
y = 90 kmph
10) Answer: E
Speed of train A = ((180 + 360) * 18/5)/32.4 = 60 kmph
x = ((180 + 220) * 18/5)/(80 – 60)
= 72 seconds

Answers :
11) Answer: C
Speed of train = 36 km/hr = 36 × 5/18 = 10 m/sec
Length = speed × time = 45 × 10 = 450 meter
Let the speed of another train be x m/sec.
Relative speed = 10 + x
Length = 450 + 450 = 900 m
⇒ (10 + x) = 900/30
⇒ x = 20 m/sec
Speed of the other train = 20 × 18/5 = 72 km/hr
12) Answer: D
Let the length of A and B be 5x and 8x respectively and the time taken by the two trains A and B to cross the man be 2t and t respectively.
So the speed of first train = 5x/2t
Now 5x/2t = 40
Or, x/t = 16
Now the speed of train Y is 8x/t= 8*16 = 128km/h
13) Answer: D
Length of train A = x
Length of bridge = x
2x = 60 * 5/18 * 42
x = 350 m
350 + Length of train B = 72 * 5/18 * 40
Length of train B = 450 m
14) Answer: C
Speed of the train A=72*5/18=20 m/sec
Length of the train A=20*18=360 m
Length of the train B=360 m
(20+x)=(360+360)/20
(20+x)=36
x=16 m/sec
15) Answer: E
Length of train B = 4x
Length of train A = 4x * 175/100 = 7x
Speed of train A = y
Speed of train B = z
7x + 150 = y * 5/18 * 20
4x = (z + 30) * 5/18 * 8
We cannot find the answer.
16) Answer: C
3 kmph = 3 * 5/18 = 5/6 m/s
6 kmph = 6 * 5/18 = 5/3 m/s
Length of Kanyakumari express = x m and Speed of Kanyakumari express = y m/s
(x/(y – 5/6)) = 8
=> x = 8y – 20/3 — (I)
(x/(y – 5/3)) = 12
=> x = 12y – 20 — (II)
From (I) and (II), we get y = 10/3 and x = 20 m
17) Answer: C
Length of train = x
Speed of train = y
x = y * 5/18 * 21.6
x = 6y
x = (y + 6) * 5/18 * 20.25
x = 5.625y + 33.75
6y – 5.625y = 33.75
y = 90
x = 90 * 6 = 540
Required time = (540 + 160)/(90 * 5/18) = 700/25
= 28 seconds
18) Answer: E
Length of the train = 5x
Length of the platform = 5x * 140/100 = 7x
Speed of the train = y
7x + 5x = y * 5/18 * 36
12x = 10y
5x = y * 5/18 * 12
15x = 10y
We cannot find the answer.
19) Answer: C
Speed of first train =90*5/18 = 25m/s
Let the speed of second train be a m/s
(360+420)/(25+a) = 12
780/(25+a) = 12
a=40 m/s
20) Answer: C
Speed of train P = x m/s
Length of train P = l m
l = 12x –– (I)
l + 300 = 18x — (II)
From (I) and (II), we get x = 50
l = 600 meters
Speed of Q = 72 * 5/18 = 20 m/s
Length of Q = m meters
m + 600 = (50 + 20) * 10
=> m = 100 meters
Required time = (m + 300)/20
= 400/20 seconds
= 20 seconds
