A worker handles a total factory delivery run of 160 km. He maps the first 60 km section at 30 km/h and the final 100 km segment section at 50 km/h. Find the mean average speed recorded across the full delivery run. MCQ with Answer and Explanation

A worker handles a total factory delivery run of 160 km. He maps the first 60 km section at 30 km/h and the final 100 km segment section at 50 km/h. Find the mean average speed recorded across the full delivery run.
A. 38 km/h
B. 45 km/h
C. 40 km/h
D. 42 km/h
Answer: Option C
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Total distance = 160 km. Time for section 1 = 60 / 30 = 2 hours. Time for section 2 = 100 / 50 = 2 hours. Total duration time = 4 hours. Average speed across run = 160 / 4 = 40 km/h.

Question #1
In a 200-meter sprint, X beats Y by 20 meters and Y beats Z by 10 meters. By how many meters does X beat Z in the same race?
A. 30 meters
B. 32 meters
C. 29 meters
D. 28 meters

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
When X covers 200m, Y covers 180m. When Y covers 200m, Z covers 190m. Thus, when Y covers 180m, Z covers 190 * (180 / 200) = 171m. Therefore, when X covers 200m, Z covers 171m. X beats Z by 200 - 171 = 29 meters.

A field clerk walking at 5 km/h handles a regular sector. If he steps up to run at 10 km/h, he takes 24 minutes less across the course stretch. Find the absolute distance profile.
A. 5.0 km
B. 4.5 km
C. 3.5 km
D. 4.0 km

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Time difference = 24 minutes = 24/60 = 2/5 hours. Let distance be d. d / 5 - d / 10 = 2/5 => d / 10 = 2/5 => d = 4 km.

A train 110 meters long passes a platform 190 meters long in 20 seconds flat. Find the speed of the train in km/h.
A. 48 km/h
B. 64 km/h
C. 54 km/h
D. 60 km/h

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Total distance = 110 + 190 = 300 meters. Speed = 300 / 20 = 15 m/s. In km/h = 15 * (18/5) = 54 km/h.
