Practice Questions - Time Speed and Distance

Q6) Ratio of the speeds of two trains is 4:7. What is the ratio of the distance travelled by these two trains in 11 hours?
1) 4:3
2) 4:7
3) 7:11
4) 3:11
When time is same then, ratio of speed = ratio of distance = 4:7
Hence, option 2.


Q7) A train running at a speed of 45 Km/hr crosses a pole in 8 seconds. Find the length of the train (in meters).
1) 100 m
2) 120 m
3) 160 m
4) 135 m


Hence, option 1.


Q8) A train 240 m long passes a man, running at 7 Km/hr in the opposite direction in which the train is going, in 16 seconds. The speed of the train is:
1) 54 Km/hr
2) 61 Km/hr
3) 47 Km/hr
4) 65 Km/hr


Speed of the train = 54 - 7 = 47 Km/hr
Hence, option 3.

Q9) Find the length of the tunnel, which a train of length 220 m travelling at 63 Km/hr can cross in 20 seconds, is:
1) 170 m
2) 110 m
3) 190 m
4) 130 m
Let y be the length of the tunnel

Hence, option 4.


Q10) A car travelling at 3/5th of its actual speed covers 'c' Km in ‘t' hours. How much distance can be covered by this car in ‘2t' hours, by traveling at its actual speed?

Let s be the actual speed.

i.e. 10c/3 is the distance travelled in 2t hours travelling at actual speed.
Hence, option 3.
