A person runs at 8 km/h instead of 6 km/h and consequently covers 10 km more in the same timeframe. Find the baseline distance covered at his normal speed. MCQ with Answer and Explanation

A person runs at 8 km/h instead of 6 km/h and consequently covers 10 km more in the same timeframe. Find the baseline distance covered at his normal speed.
A. 25 km
B. 40 km
C. 35 km
D. 30 km
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Let duration be t hours. Distance difference = 8t - 6t = 2t = 10 km => t = 5 hours. Distance handled at normal speed (6 km/h) = 6 * 5 = 30 km.

Question #1
If a person covers a distance of 180 km in 4 hours, find his speed in meters per second.
A. 11.5 m/s
B. 12.5 m/s
C. 13.5 m/s
D. 14.5 m/s

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Speed = 180 / 4 = 45 km/h. Converting to m/s = 45 * (5/18) = 12.5 m/s.

Question #2
Two trains 120 meters and 130 meters long are running in opposite directions at speeds of 45 km/h and 45 km/h respectively. In what time will they cross each other?
A. 10 seconds
B. 9 seconds
C. 11 seconds
D. 12 seconds

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Total distance = 120 + 130 = 250 meters. Relative speed in opposite directions = 45 + 45 = 90 km/h = 25 m/s. Time taken = 250 / 25 = 10 seconds.

Question #3
A wheel has a radius of 14 cm. How many revolutions must it make to cover a distance of 88 meters?
A. 100
B. 120
C. 150
D. 80

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Circumference of the wheel = 2 * (22/7) * 14 = 88 cm = 0.88 meters. Total distance = 88 meters. Number of revolutions = 88 / 0.88 = 100.
