A train 130 meters long passes a bridge of length 270 meters in 30 seconds. Find the speed of the train in km/h. MCQ with Answer and Explanation

A train 130 meters long passes a bridge of length 270 meters in 30 seconds. Find the speed of the train in km/h.
A. 50 km/h
B. 45 km/h
C. 54 km/h
D. 48 km/h
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Total distance = 130 + 270 = 400 meters. Speed = 400 / 30 = 40/3 m/s. In km/h = (40/3) * (18/5) = 8 * 6 = 48 km/h.

Question #1
A train 120 meters long is running at a speed of 54 km/h. How long will it take to cross a platform 180 meters long?
A. 18 seconds
B. 24 seconds
C. 22 seconds
D. 20 seconds

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:

Question #2
A cart wheel turns 1000 revolutions to bridge a sector distance of 1320 meters. Find the diameter size of the turning wheel.
A. 50 cm
B. 42 cm
C. 38 cm
D. 46 cm

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Distance covered in 1 single turn revolution = 1320 / 1000 = 1.32 meters = 132 cm. Circumference = 2 * (22/7) * r = 132 cm => Diameter (2r) * (22/7) = 132 => Diameter = 132 * 7 / 22 = 6 * 7 = 42 cm.
