An electronic device beeps after every 60 seconds. Another device beeps after every 62 seconds. They beeped together at 10 a.m. When is the next time they will beep together? - A plane 3
A plane left 30 minutes later than the scheduled time. In order to reach the destination 1,500 km away on time, it had to increase its speed by 250 km/h from its usual speed. Find its usual speed. - A car acceleration
A car increased its speed from 21.6 km/h to 108 km/h over a 54-metre-long track. Determine its acceleration, assuming that the motion is uniformly accelerated. - Tractor 17
A tractor's average speed was 2.4 km/h in the first minute of starting, 3.6 km/h in the second and third minutes, and 5.0 km/h in the fourth through sixth minutes. What distance did it cover during the first six minutes of driving? Determine the tractor's - A bike 2

An aircraft was slowed down during a 600 km flight due to bad weather. Its average speed was reduced by 200 km/hr from its usual speed, and the flight time increased by 30 minutes. Find the scheduled duration of the flight. - Peleton
In a cycling race, the peloton travels at an average speed of 36 km/h. One competitor stopped for 5 minutes to repair a puncture. By how many kilometres per hour did his speed exceed the speed of the peloton when he caught up with it in 20 minutes? How lo - Hourglass ticks
The hourglass ticks three times in 5 minutes. How many times do they spill in 2 hours? - Republican calendar conversion
In the republican calendar (used in France from 1793 to 1805), one full day was divided into 10 hours; each hour had 100 minutes, and each minute had 100 seconds. What time would the clock show at that time when today's clock reads 15:36? - Skiing and sledding
Behind the pond, the cat Miki is skiing and Bobo is sledding down a 300-meter-long slope. Careful Bobo can go down the slope in one minute. How many km/h faster does Miki go down the hill than Bobo if he is down 20 seconds earlier? - Airship
An airship is at a height x above the ground. Pavel watches it from point A at an elevation angle of 18°26'. At the same time, Peter sees it from a small plane that is currently flying over Pavel at an altitude of 150 m. Peter sees the airship at an eleva
