Question #1
A vehicle covers a specific highway distance at 50 km/h. If it spikes its speed to 60 km/h, it clears the stretch 20 minutes early. Find the total distance.
A. 120 km
B. 90 km
C. 110 km
D. 100 km

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Time difference = 20 minutes = 20/60 = 1/3 hours. Let distance be d. d / 50 - d / 60 = 1/3 => (6d - 5d) / 300 = 1/3 => d / 300 = 1/3 => d = 100 km.

Two trains 100 meters and 120 meters long are running in the same direction at speeds of 72 km/h and 54 km/h respectively. In how much time will the faster train cross the slower train completely?
A. 40 seconds
B. 36 seconds
C. 48 seconds
D. 44 seconds

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Total distance = 100 + 120 = 220 meters. Relative speed = 72 - 54 = 18 km/h = 5 m/s. Time taken = 220 / 5 = 44 seconds.
