A runner covers a circular path of radius 70 meters in 44 seconds. What is his speed in km/h? MCQ with Answer and Explanation

A runner covers a circular path of radius 70 meters in 44 seconds. What is his speed in km/h?
A. 30 km/h
B. 45 km/h
C. 40 km/h
D. 36 km/h
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Circumference of circular path = 2 * (22/7) * 70 = 440 meters. Speed = 440 / 44 = 10 m/s. In km/h = 10 * (18/5) = 36 km/h.

Question #1 Report Error
A man rows downstream 48 km in 4 hours and upstream 24 km in 4 hours. Find the speed of the boat in still water.
A. 9 km/h
B. 10 km/h
C. 8 km/h
D. 12 km/h

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Downstream speed = 48 / 4 = 12 km/h. Upstream speed = 24 / 4 = 6 km/h. Speed in still water = (Downstream speed + Upstream speed) / 2 = (12 + 6) / 2 = 9 km/h.

A field clerk walking at 5 km/h handles a regular sector. If he steps up to run at 10 km/h, he takes 24 minutes less across the course stretch. Find the absolute distance profile.
A. 4.5 km
B. 5.0 km
C. 4.0 km
D. 3.5 km

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Time difference = 24 minutes = 24/60 = 2/5 hours. Let distance be d. d / 5 - d / 10 = 2/5 => d / 10 = 2/5 => d = 4 km.

A passenger train running at 54 km/h passes through a tunnel 400 meters long in 40 seconds. Find the length of the train.
A. 220 meters
B. 200 meters
C. 240 meters
D. 180 meters

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Speed of train = 54 * (5/18) = 15 m/s. Total distance covered in 40 seconds = 15 * 40 = 600 meters. Length of train = Total distance - Tunnel length = 600 - 400 = 200 meters.
