Question #1 Report Error
A train 110 meters long is running at a speed of 58 km/h. How much time will it take to pass a man running at 4 km/h in the opposite direction?
A. 7 seconds
B. 6.38 seconds
C. 7.5 seconds
D. 6 seconds

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Relative speed = 58 + 4 = 62 km/h = 62 * (5/18) = 155/9 m/s. Time = Distance / Speed = 110 / (155/9) = 110 * 9 / 155 = 990 / 155 = 6.38 seconds.

Question #3 Report Error
A car covers a distance of 100 km at 40 km/h and another 150 km at 50 km/h. Find the average speed for the complete trip.

B. 45.45 km/h
C. 48.0 km/h
D. 44.2 km/h

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Total distance = 100 + 150 = 250 km. Time 1 = 100 / 40 = 2.5 hours. Time 2 = 150 / 50 = 3 hours. Total time = 5.5 hours. Average speed = 250 / 5.5 = 45.45 km/h.
