Correct Answer: 75 m
Explanation:
Start given by A to B = (800 - 725)m = 75 m
Correct Answer: 200 m
Explanation:
Required length = (175 + 25)m = 200 m
Correct Answer: 130 m
Explanation:
Required distance = (150 - 20) m = 130 m
Correct Answer: 200 m
Explanation:
Raman covers 1 km in 8 min
and suman cover 1 km in 10 min.
If they starts together, then distance covered by suman in 8 min
= (1000/10) x 8 = 800 m
? Raman will beat suman by (1000 - 800 ) m = 200 m
Correct Answer: 1 km/hr
Explanation:
Suppose that the man takes H hours to cover 4 km downstream and H house to cover 3 km upstream.
Then, 48H/4 + 48H/3 = 14
? H = 1/2
? Rate upstream = 3/(1/2)= 6 km/hr
and rate downstream = 4/(1/2) = 8 km/hr
? Rate of the stream = (8 - 6)/2 = 1 km/hr .
Correct Answer: 491 s
Explanation:
Clearly, B covers 18 m in 9 s.
? B's time over the course = 9/18 x 1000 = 500 s
? A' s time over the course = (500 - 9) = 491 s
Correct Answer: 86 s
Explanation:
Clearly, Y covers 140 m in 14 s
? Y' s time over the course = (14/140) x 1000 = 100 s
? X' s time over the course = 100 - 14 = 86 s
Correct Answer: 5.9 m/s
Explanation:
Time taken by A to cover 400 m = Distance/ Speed
= 400/16 s = 25 s
? B covers (400 -16) = 384 m in(25 + 40) = 65 s
? B's speed = 384/65 =5.9 m/s
Correct Answer: 100 m
Explanation:
When B runs 50 m, then A runs 45 m.
When B runs 1000 m, then A runs (45/50) x 1000 m = 900 m
? B beats A by 100 m.
Correct Answer: 1515?19 m
Explanation:
The distance covered by B in 35 seconds = 200 x 35 / 38 = 3500 / 19 m
Now, 200 ? 3500 / 19 = 300 / 19 = 1515?19 m Hence, A can beat B by 1515?19 m.
