A baseline boat hull can row 10 km/h in still water. If the river current tracks a velocity of 2 km/h, find the exact sector distance covered downstream by the boat hull in 30 minutes flat. MCQ with Answer and Explanation

A baseline boat hull can row 10 km/h in still water. If the river current tracks a velocity of 2 km/h, find the exact sector distance covered downstream by the boat hull in 30 minutes flat.
A. 8 km
B. 7 km
C. 5 km
D. 6 km
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Downstream speed = 10 + 2 = 12 km/h. Time = 30 minutes = 0.5 hour. Distance covered = Speed * Time = 12 * 0.5 = 6 km.

Question #1
Two commuter trains 130 meters and 120 meters long are tracking in opposite directions at speeds of 42 km/h and 48 km/h respectively. In what time will they clear each other?
A. 9 seconds
B. 12 seconds
C. 11 seconds
D. 10 seconds

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Total distance = 130 + 120 = 250 meters. Relative speed in opposite directions = 42 + 48 = 90 km/h = 90 * (5/18) = 25 m/s. Time required = 250 / 25 = 10 seconds.

Question #2
How long will a person take to walk around a square field of side 45 meters if his speed is 9 km/h?
A. 64 seconds
B. 90 seconds
C. 72 seconds
D. 80 seconds

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Perimeter of the square field = 4 * 45 = 180 meters. Speed = 9 km/h = 9 * (5/18) = 2.5 m/s. Time = Distance / Speed = 180 / 2.5 = 72 seconds.

Question #3
Excluding stoppages, a transit bus maintains an average speed of 75 km/h, and including stoppages its speed is 60 km/h. Find the stoppage time per hour.
A. 18 minutes
B. 15 minutes
C. 12 minutes
D. 10 minutes

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Stoppage time per hour = (Fast speed - Slow speed) / Fast speed = (75 - 60) / 75 = 15 / 75 = 1/5 hour. Converting to minutes = (1/5) * 60 = 15 minutes.
