4. 11 : 9


Answers and Solution:

1.(1) Solution:
Speed=72 km/h=72 x 5/18 = 20 m/s
Distance covered in 2 min =20 x 2 x 60 = 2400 m

2.(2) Solution:
Speed of the man = 3 x 18/5 km/h = 54/5 km/h
Distance covered in 5/3 hrs=54/5 x 5/3 = 18 km

3. (3) Solution:
Distance=Speed x time
4 x 11/4=11 km
New speed =16.5 km/h
Therefore Time=D/S=11/16.5 = 40 min

4. (4) Solution:
Time=50/60 hr=5/6 hr
Speed=48 mph
Distance=S x T=48 x 5 /6=40 km
Time=40/60 hr=2/3 hr
New speed = 40 x 3/2 km/h= 60 km/h

5. (4) Solution:
Let total distance be S
Total time=1 hr 24 min
A to T:
Speed = 4 km/h Distance =2/3 S
T to S:
Speed=5 km/h Distance=1-2/3 S=1/3 S
=> 21/15 hr=2/3 S/4 + 1/3S/5
=> 84=14/3S x 3
S=84 x 3/14 x 3 =  6 km

6. (1)Solution:
Usual speed = S Usual time = T Distance = D
New Speed is 3/4 S
New time is 4/3 T
4/3 T – T = 5/2
T=15/2 = 7 ½

7. (3) Solution:
Let distance = x m Usual rate = y km/h
x/y – x/y+3 = 40/60 hr
2y (y+3) = 9x [Eqn 1]
x/y-2 – x/y = 40/60 hr y(y-2) = 3x [Eqn 2]
Divide 1 & 2 and solving we get
x = 40

8.(2) Solution:
Due to stoppages, it covers 9 km less.
Time taken to cover 9 km is [9/54 x 60] min = 10 min

9. (1) Solution:
The relative speed of the boys = 5.5 km/h – 5 km/h = 0.5 km/h
Distance between them is 8.5 km
Time= 8.5 / 0.5 = 17 hrs

10. (4) Solution:
In same time, they cover 110 km & 90 km respectively
So ratio of their speed =110:90 = 11:9
