ANSWER WITH EXPLANATION

1. Answer: A y=12km/hr and x= 40 km

Let the speed of car B is x,
60/x = √(3 + (45/60))/(6 + (40/60)) 5. Answer: A
60/x = √(225/400) Let the distance travelled on foot be x km and
60/x = 15/20 the distance travelled on bicycle be (30 – x)
x = 80 km/h km.
Therefore, the speed of car B = 80 km/h ACQ,
=> x/3 + (30 – x)/6 = 9
2. Answer: B => 2x + 30 – x = 9 * 6
Let the time taken by thief to cover a distance => x = 24km.
be x,
The distance covered by thief and owner is 6. Answer: B
same. So, Time taken by the man to cover 240 Km by
Distance = Speed * Time train = 240/48 = 5 hours
50 * x = 60 * (x – 15/60) Time taken by the man to cover 60 Km by bus
50x = 60x – 15 = 60/12 = 5 hours
10x = 15 Time taken by the man to cover 20 Km by
x = 15/10 = 3/2 hours = 1 (1/2) hours bicycle = 20/5 = 4 hours
We know that,
3. Answer: D Average speed = Total distance/Total time
Let the speed of the plane be 3x = (240 + 60 + 20)/(5 + 5 + 4)
And new speed = 3x * (133.33/100) = 4x = 320/14
ACQ, = 22.85 Km/h
2400 = (2 * 3x * 4x)/x
x = 100 7. Answer: E
Therefore, the new speed = 4 * 100 = 400 km/h Speed of the car = 780/12 = 65 Km/h
Distance between place A and place B = 29 x
4. Answer: C 27 = 783 Km
Let the distance covered by the man be x km Let, time taken by the car to reach place B
and speed of the bike be y km/hr after meeting with the accident = t hours
Then, (x/y)-(x/(y+3)) =40/60 65 x 5 + 65 x 80/100 x t = 783
2y(y+3) =9x………. (1) => 325 + 52t = 783
And (x/(y-2))-x/y=40/60 => 52t = 783 – 325
y (y-2) = 3x ………… (2) => t = 458/52
After solving (1) and (2), we get => t = 8.80

Total time taken = 5 + 8.80 = 13.80 hours New speed of Anu = 4 * 2 = 8 kmph
New speed of Arjun = 6 – 1 = 5 kmph
8. Answer: E Relative speed = 8 – 5 = 3 kmph
Let the office time be 10 am, Distance between both = 12 – 8 = 4 km
If he travelled at 60 km/hr, he reached at 10.10 Required total time = 2 + 4/3 = 3 (1/3) hours
am
If he travelled at 80 km/hr, he reached at 9.55 10. Answer: B
am Relative speed of train with respect to first
Difference between the arrival time = 10.10 – person = 200/10 = 20 * 18/5
9.55 = 15 mins =72 kmph
The distance between his house to office Speed of train = 72 – 8 = 64 kmph
= > (x/60) – (x/80) = (15/60) Relative speed of train with respect to second
= > 20x / (60* 80) = (15/60) person = 200/8 = 25 * 18/5
= > x = 60 km =90 kmph
Speed of second person = 90 – 64 = 26 kmph

9. Answer: B
Distance travelled by Anu in 2 hours = 4 * 2 = 8
km
Distance travelled by Arjun in 2 hours = 6 * 2 =
12 km
