The outer wheel of a cart makes 500 revolutions in moving a distance of 1.1 km. Find the diameter of the wheel. MCQ with Answer and Explanation

The outer wheel of a cart makes 500 revolutions in moving a distance of 1.1 km. Find the diameter of the wheel.
A. 70 cm
B. 35 cm
C. 50 cm
D. 105 cm
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Distance in 1 revolution = Total distance / Number of revolutions = 1100 meters / 500 = 2.2 meters. Circumference = 2 * (22/7) * r = 2.2 meters => Diameter (2r) * (22/7) = 2.2 => Diameter = 2.2 * 7 / 22 = 0.7 meters = 70 cm.

Question #1 Report Error
A car covers a certain distance at a speed of 48 km/h in 50 minutes. With what speed should it run to decrease the time of journey by 10 minutes?
A. 72 km/h
B. 60 km/h
C. 54 km/h
D. 64 km/h

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Original time = 50 mins. New time = 50 - 10 = 40 mins. S1 * T1 = S2 * T2 => 48 * 50 = S2 * 40 => S2 = (48 * 50) / 40 = 60 km/h.

Question #2 Report Error
A car covers a distance from town X to town Y at a speed of 45 km/h and returns at a speed of 75 km/h. If the total journey takes 8 hours, find the one-way distance between the two towns.
A. 250 km
B. 225 km
C. 210 km
D. 240 km

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Let the one-way distance be d km. Time taken forward = d/45 and return = d/75. Given: d/45 + d/75 = 8. (5d + 3d) / 225 = 8 => 8d / 225 = 8 => d = 225 km.

Question #3 Report Error
A boatman can row 16 km/h in still water. If the river velocity index tracks at 4 km/h, find the time interval required by the boat hull to row 48 km upstream.
A. 3.5 hours
B. 5.0 hours
C. 4.0 hours
D. 4.5 hours

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Upstream tracking speed = 16 - 4 = 12 km/h. Time required = Sector Distance / Upstream Speed = 48 / 12 = 4 hours.
