A professional athlete tracks a loop of radius 140 meters in 88 seconds. What is his speed in km/h? MCQ with Answer and Explanation

A professional athlete tracks a loop of radius 140 meters in 88 seconds. What is his speed in km/h?
A. 32 km/h
B. 44 km/h
C. 36 km/h
D. 40 km/h
Answer: Option C
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Circumference of loop = 2 * (22/7) * 140 = 880 meters. Speed = 880 / 88 = 10 m/s. Converting to km/h = 10 * (18/5) = 36 km/h.

Question #1
A passenger train 140 meters long passes an active bridge platform 310 meters long in 20 seconds. What is the speed of the train in km/h?
A. 75 km/h
B. 90 km/h
C. 85 km/h
D. 81 km/h

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Total distance = 140 + 310 = 450 meters. Speed = 450 / 20 = 22.5 m/s. In km/h = 22.5 * (18/5) = 4.5 * 18 = 81 km/h.

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

Correct Answer: Option D


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.
