A train 160 meters long passes a platform of length 340 meters in 25 seconds. Find the absolute speed of the train in km/h.
A. 72 km/h
B. 68 km/h
C. 76 km/h
D. 80 km/h
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Total distance = 160 + 340 = 500 meters. Speed = 500 / 25 = 20 m/s. In km/h = 20 * (18/5) = 72 km/h.

Question #1 Report Error
Two cars start from the same place at the same time in the same direction. The first car runs at a constant speed of 50 km/h and the second car runs at 60 km/h. What is the distance between them after 3 hours 30 minutes?
A. 30 km
B. 45 km
C. 35 km
D. 40 km

Correct Answer: Option C
