Question #1
A train passes an electric pole in 12 seconds and a bridge of length 240 meters in 24 seconds. Find the length of the train.
A. 300 meters
B. 200 meters
C. 180 meters
D. 240 meters

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
The train takes 12 seconds to cross its own length and 24 seconds to cross its own length plus the bridge. Therefore, it takes 24 - 12 = 12 seconds to cross the 240-meter bridge. Speed = 240 / 12 = 20 m/s. Length of train = Speed * Time to cross pole = 20 * 12 = 240 meters.

Question #2
A man walks from his residence to a focal point at 4 km/h and arrives 10 minutes late. If he increases his speed to 5 km/h, he arrives 2 minutes early. Find the distance.
A. 3.5 km
B. 4.5 km
C. 5.0 km
D. 4.0 km

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Time difference = 10 - (-2) = 12 minutes = 12/60 = 0.2 hours. Let distance be d. d / 4 - d / 5 = 0.2 => d / 20 = 0.2 => d = 4 km.

Question #3
A person rows 18 km downstream in 2 hours and covers the same distance upstream in 6 hours. What is the speed of the boat in still water?
A. 8 km/h
B. 6 km/h
C. 7 km/h
D. 5 km/h

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Downstream speed = 18 / 2 = 9 km/h. Upstream speed = 18 / 6 = 3 km/h. Speed in still water = (9 + 3) / 2 = 6 km/h.
