- Long train
A 110 m long train crosses a tree in 3 s. How long will it take to cross a 165 m long platform and 135 m long bridge, If the platform and bridge are at a distance of 30 m? - Usual speed
If the usual speed is reduced by 5 km per hour, a train takes 2 hours more to cover a distance of 300 km. Find the usual speed. - Two trains 13
Two trains start at the same time toward each other from stations A and B at respective speeds of 36 km/h and 42 km/h. When they meet, it was found that one train has covered 48 km more than the other. Find the distance between the two stations. - A boat 4
A boat travels 25 km upstream in 5 hours and 25 km downstream in 2.5 hours. If the boat increased its speed by 3 km/h, it would take 1 hour less to travel the downstream distance. Find the speed of the stream.
- Automobil
The car traveled three quarters of the total journey at a speed of 90 km/h and the remaining part of the journey at a speed of 50 km/h. Find its average speed. - A train 3
A train takes 3 hours to go from one station to another station. If its speed is decreased by 12 km/h then the journey time will increase by 45 min. What is the distance between the two stations? - Freezing
A certain freezing process requires that room temperature be lowered from 40°C at the rate of 5°C per hour.What will be the room temperature 12 hours after the process begins? - The first
The first 300 km of a journey is covered in 10/3 hours, and the remaining journey is covered in 8/3 hours at 75 km/h. Find the average speed of the whole journey. - River current
In a river, a man takes 3 hours in rowing 3 km upstream or 15 km downstream. What is the speed of the current?
- Two trains 9
A passenger train moving at a speed of 90 km/h leaves a station 6 hours after a goods (freight) train has left the station and overtakes it in 4 hours. What is the speed of the goods train? - The reflection law
AB is a mirror, PQ is the incident ray, and QR is the reflected ray. If angle PQR = 112°, find angle PQA. - A train 2
A train 90 meters long is moving at speed 80 km/h overtakes a second train moving at 56 km/h in the same direction and passes completely in 25 1/2 seconds. Compute how long is the second train. - Parallel tracks
Two trains cross each other in 14 seconds when running in opposite directions along parallel tracks. The faster train is 160 m long and crosses a lamp post in 12 seconds. If the speed of the other train is 6 km/hr less than the faster one, its length, in - Mr. Stephan
Mr. Stephan cycled at an average speed of 15 km/h for 10 km. He then cycled another 12 km at an average speed of 18 km/h. Please find the total time taken for his journey.
- Two places 3
The distance between two places, A and B, is 90 km. Two cars start together from A and B. If both the cars go in the same direction, they meet after 9 hours, and if they go in opposite directions, they meet after 9/7 hours. Find their speeds. (Assume that - Two persons
Two persons are walking beside a railway track at respective speeds of 2 and 4 km per hour in the same direction. A train came from behind them and crossed them in 90 and 100 seconds, respectively. Find the length of the train. - Bad weather
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. - The capacitor
The parallel square plates of a 4.5µF Teflon capacitor are 3.2 mm apart. What is the area of the plate? - The intensity
The light intensity on a screen is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the screen and the light source. If a screen is illuminated by a light source 20 m away, the intensity is one-fifth of what is required. Where should the light
