A sound wave maps a total line segment distance of 2.04 km in 6 seconds. Find the velocity of sound in m/s. MCQ with Answer and Explanation

A sound wave maps a total line segment distance of 2.04 km in 6 seconds. Find the velocity of sound in m/s.
A. 330 m/s
B. 360 m/s
C. 340 m/s
D. 350 m/s
Answer: Option C
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Distance = 2.04 km = 2040 meters. Velocity = Distance / Time = 2040 / 6 = 340 m/s.

Question #1
A person row a boat 45 km downstream in 3 hours and manages the return journey upstream in 9 hours. Find the speed of the river current.
A. 6.0 km/h
B. 4.5 km/h
C. 5.5 km/h
D. 5.0 km/h

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Downstream speed = 45 / 3 = 15 km/h. Upstream speed = 45 / 9 = 5 km/h. Speed of current = (15 - 5) / 2 = 10 / 2 = 5 km/h.

Question #2
In a 100-meter race, A can beat B by 20 meters and B can beat C by 10 meters. By how many meters can A beat C in the same race?
A. 30 meters
B. 26 meters
C. 32 meters
D. 28 meters

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
When A covers 100m, B covers 80m. When B covers 100m, C covers 90m. Thus, when B covers 80m, C covers 90 * (80 / 100) = 72m. Therefore, when A covers 100m, C covers 72m. A beats C by 100 - 72 = 28 meters.

Question #3
A worker reaches his factory 15 minutes late if he walks at 4 km/h, and 10 minutes early if he walks at 6 km/h. Find the distance to his factory.
A. 8 km
B. 4 km
C. 6 km
D. 5 km

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Time difference = 15 - (-10) = 25 minutes = 25/60 = 5/12 hour. Let distance be d. d/4 - d/6 = 5/12 => d/12 = 5/12 => d = 5 km.
