- Question
- Ram and Shyam are moving in the directions opposite to each other. The Speeds of both persons are 10 km/h and 6 km/h, respectively. Find the speeds of Ram with respect of Shyam.
Options- A. 6 km/h
- B. 16 km/h
- C. 4 km/h
- D. 8 km/h
- Correct Answer
- 16 km/h
ExplanationWe know that for relative speed, the two speeds will be added, if the motions of the two objects are in opposite directions.
? Required speed = 10 + 6 = 16 km/h - 1. The speed of a bus is 72 km/h. The distance Covered bye the bus in 5 s is

Options- A. 246 km
- B. 289 km
- C. 296 km
- D. 276 km Discuss
- 4. A car covers a distance of 690 km in 30 h. What is the average speed of the car?
Options- A. 25 km/h

Correct Answer: 100 m
Explanation:
Given, speed of bus = 72 km/h = 72 x 5/18 = 20 m/s
? Distance travelled in 5 s = 5 x 20 = 100 m
Correct Answer: 20 h
Explanation:
We know that, speed = Distance / Time
? Required Time = Distance / Speed = 400/20 = 20 h
Correct Answer: 296 km
Explanation:
We know that, Speed = Distance / Time
? Required distance = Speed x Time
= 37 x 8 = 296 km
Correct Answer: 23 km/h
Explanation:
Required speed = Distance/ Time
= 690/30
= 23 km/h
Correct Answer: 20 km/h
Explanation:
We know that, speed = Distance / Time
? Required speed = 300/15 =20 km/h
Correct Answer: 4 km/h
Explanation:
We know that for relative speed, the subtraction of speeds takes place, if the motions of the two objects are in the same direction.
? Required relative speed = 9 - 5 = 4 km/h
Correct Answer: 24 km
Explanation:
We know that, speed = Distance / Time
Speed = 12/90 km/min
? Distance covered in 3 h = Speed x Time
= (12/90) x (3 x 60) = 24km
Correct Answer: 7 : 2
Explanation:
We know that speed is inversely proportional to time.
Given that, (Speed of A ) : (speed of B ) = 2 : 7
?(Time taken by A ) : (Time taken by B ) = 1/2 : 1/7 = 7 : 2
Correct Answer: 7 km/h
Explanation:
Total distance = 30 + 40 = 70 km
Total time taken = (30/6) + 5 = 10 h
? Required average speed = 70/10 = 7 km/h
Correct Answer: 4 : 1
Explanation:
Let L km distance be covered in T h. So, speed in first case = L/T km/h.
And speed in second case = (L/2)/2T = L/4T km/h
? Required ratio = L/T : L/4T =1 : 1/4 = 4 : 1
