1. If a man covered $$70 \ km$$ distance in $$2 \ hours$$, then find out the speed of the man?

1. $$32 \ km/hr$$
2. $$36 \ km/hr$$
3. $$38 \ km/hr$$
4. $$35 \ km/hr$$

Answer: (d) $$35 \ km/hr$$

Solution: Given, distance covered by the man = $$70 \ km$$, time taken = $$2 \ hours$$, then the speed of the man, $$speed = \frac{distance \ covered}{time \ taken}$$ $$speed = \frac{70}{2} = 35 \ km/hr$$

1. If John covered $$120 / km$$ distance at the speed of $$40 \ km/hr$$ then find the time taken by the John to cover the distance?

1. $$1 \ hours$$
2. $$2 \ hours$$
3. $$3 \ hours$$
4. $$4 \ hours$$

Answer: (c) $$3 \ hours$$

Solution: Given, distance covered by the John = $$120 \ km$$, speed = $$40 \ km/hr$$, then $$speed = \frac{distance \ covered}{time \ taken}$$ $$40 = \frac{120}{time \ taken}$$ $$time \ taken = 3 \ hours$$

1. A man traveled from city A to city B at the speed of $$60 \ km/hr$$ and reaches the city B in $$4 \ hours$$, then find the distance covered by the man?

1. $$200 \ km$$
2. $$220 \ km$$
3. $$240 \ km$$
4. $$250 \ km$$

Answer: (c) $$240 \ km$$

Solution: Given, speed of the man = $$60 \ km/hr$$, time taken = $$4 \ hours$$, then $$speed = \frac{distance \ covered}{time \ taken}$$ $$60 = \frac{distance \ covered}{4}$$ $$distance \ covered = 240 \ km$$

1. If a car moving at the speed of $$80 \ km/hr$$, then find the speed of the car in $$m/sec$$?

1. $$24.25 \ m/sec$$
2. $$22.22 \ m/sec$$
3. $$25.25 \ m/sec$$
4. $$20.20 \ m/sec$$

Answer: (b) $$22.22 \ m/sec$$

Solution: speed of car = $$80 \ km/hr$$, then $$80 \ km/hr = 80 \times \frac{5}{18} = 22.22 \ m/sec$$

1. If speed of a bus is $$30 \ m/sec$$, then find the speed of bus in $$km/hr$$?

1. $$112 \ km/hr$$
2. $$110 \ km/hr$$
3. $$111 \ km/hr$$
4. $$108 \ km/hr$$

Answer: (d) $$108 \ km/hr$$

Solution: speed of bus = $$30 \ m/sec$$, then $$30 \ m/sec = 30 \times \frac{18}{5} = 108 \ km/hr$$

1. If two trains moving in the same direction with the speed of $$170 \ km/hr$$ and $$90 \ km/hr$$, respectively. Find the relative speed of the trains?

1. $$80 \ km/hr$$
2. $$86 \ km/hr$$
3. $$82 \ km/hr$$
4. $$88 \ km/hr$$

Answer: (a) $$80 \ km/hr$$

Solution: Given, speed of the first train $$(s_1) = 170 \ km/hr$$, speed of the second train $$(s_2) = 90 \ km/hr$$, then $$Relative \ speed = s_1 - s_2$$ $$Relative \ speed = 170 - 90$$ $$Relative \ speed = 80 \ km/hr$$

1. Relative speed of two cars is $$75 \ km/hr$$ moving in the same direction, if speed of second car is $$35 \ km/hr$$, then find the speed of first car?

1. $$108 \ km/hr$$
2. $$114 \ km/hr$$
3. $$112 \ km/hr$$
4. $$110 \ km/hr$$

Answer: (d) $$110 \ km/hr$$

Solution: Given, relative speed = $$75 \ km/hr$$, speed of second car $$(s_2) = 35 \ km/hr$$, then $$relative \ speed = s_1 - s_2$$ $$75 = s_1 - 35$$ $$s_1 = 110 \ km/hr$$

1. If two buses are moving in opposite direction at the speed of $$45 \ km/hr$$ and $$55 \ km/hr$$ respectively, then find the relative speed of the buses?

1. $$98 \ km/hr$$
2. $$102 \ km/hr$$
3. $$100 \ km/hr$$
4. $$105 \ km/hr$$

Answer: (c) $$100 \ km/hr$$

Solution: Given, speed of first bus $$(s_1) = 45 \ km/hr$$, speed of second bus $$(s_2) = 55 \ km/hr$$, then relative speed of the buses, $$Relative \ speed = s_1 + s_2$$ $$Relative \ speed = 45 + 55$$ $$Relative \ speed = 100 \ km/hr$$

1. Relative speed of two trains is $$30 \ km/hr$$ moving in the opposite direction. If speed of second train is $$25 \ km/hr$$, then find the speed of first train?

1. $$5 \ km/hr$$
2. $$10 \ km/hr$$
3. $$15 \ km/hr$$
4. $$20 \ km/hr$$

Answer: (a) $$5 \ km/hr$$

Solution: Given, relative speed of the trains = $$30 \ km/hr$$, speed of second train $$(s_2) = 25 \ km/hr$$, then $$Relative \ speed = s_1 + s_2$$ $$30 = s_1 + 25$$ $$s_1 = 5 \ km/hr$$

1. If there are two railway stations A and B. First train moving from station A to B at the speed of $$180 \ km/hr$$ and second train moving from B to A. If relative speed of the trains is $$210 \ km/hr$$, then find the speed of second train moving from B to A?

1. $$25 \ km/hr$$
2. $$30 \ km/hr$$
3. $$32 \ km/hr$$
4. $$35 \ km/hr$$

Answer: (b) $$30 \ km/hr$$

Solution: Given, speed of the first train $$(s_1) = 180 \ km/hr$$, relative speed of trains = $$210 \ km/hr$$, then $$Relative \ speed = s_1 + s_2$$ $$210 = 180 + s_2$$ $$s_2 = 30 \ km/hr$$
