A jogger runs along a square perimeter of side 45 meters. If his speed is 10.8 km/h, how much time does he take to finish one full round?
A. 72 seconds
B. 54 seconds
C. 60 seconds
D. 66 seconds
Answer: Option C
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Perimeter of the course = 4 * 45 = 180 meters. Speed = 10.8 km/h = 10.8 * (5/18) = 3 m/s. Time required = Distance / Speed = 180 / 3 = 60 seconds.

Question #1 Report Error
A person covers 1/3 of a distance at 20 km/h, 1/3 at 30 km/h and the last 1/3 at 60 km/h. Find the average speed.
A. 32 km/h
B. 28 km/h
C. 30 km/h
D. 35 km/h

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Let each third of the distance be 60 km. Total distance = 180 km. Total time taken = 60/20 + 60/30 + 60/60 = 3 + 2 + 1 = 6 hours. Average speed = 180 / 6 = 30 km/h.

Question #2 Report Error
A train passes a pedestrian standing on a platform in 6 seconds and passes the platform itself, which is 150 meters long, in 11 seconds. Find the speed of the train in km/h.
A. 90 km/h
B. 108 km/h
C. 120 km/h
D. 135 km/h

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Time taken to cross the platform alone = 11 - 6 = 5 seconds. Speed of train = 150 / 5 = 30 m/s. In km/h = 30 * (18/5) = 108 km/h.

Question #3 Report Error
If a delivery agent cycles at 15 km/h instead of 11 km/h, he travels 20 km more in the same allotted duration. Find the actual distance covered by him at his lower speed.
A. 50 km
B. 55 km
C. 65 km
D. 60 km

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Let the time duration be t hours. Distance difference = 15t - 11t = 4t = 20 km => t = 5 hours. Distance covered at lower speed = 11 * 5 = 55 km.
