Q1. Two trains of 200 m and 100 m long are running parallel at the rate of 20 m/sec. and 22 m/sec. respectively. How much time will they take to cross each other, if the trains are running along the same direction? Q1. Two trains of 200 m and 100 m long are running parallel at the rate of 20 m/sec. and 22 m/sec. respectively. How much time will they take to cross each other, if the trains are running along the same direction?
(A) 120 sec (A) 120 sec
(B) 100 sec (B) 100 sec
(C) 60 sec (C) 60 sec
(D) 50 sec (D) 50 sec
Answer: (D) 50 sec Answer: (D) 50 sec
The difference of speed = 22m/s - 20m/s = 2m/s
As the train with speed 22m/s will cross the other, hence this train have to go the smallest length of the trains distance ahead of the other to cross completely.
Hence This train will be ahead of 100m with a speed of 2m/s.
Hence The time to cross each other will take = 100m / (2m/s)
= 50 secThe difference of speed = 22m/s - 20m/s = 2m/s
As the train with speed 22m/s will cross the other, hence this train have to go the smallest length of the trains distance ahead of the other to cross completely.
Hence This train will be ahead of 100m with a speed of 2m/s.
Hence The time to cross each other will take = 100m / (2m/s)
= 50 sec

Q4. ‘A’ starts his journey at 1:00 p.m. from a location P with a speed of 1 m/sec. ‘B’ starts his journey from the same location P and along the same direction at 1:10 p.m. with a speed of 2 m/sec. If ‘B’ meets ‘A’ at the location Q, then the distance PQ is : Q4. ‘A’ starts his journey at 1:00 p.m. from a location P with a speed of 1 m/sec. ‘B’ starts his journey from the same location P and along the same direction at 1:10 p.m. with a speed of 2 m/sec. If ‘B’ meets ‘A’ at the location Q, then the distance PQ is :
(A) 1.5 km (A) 1.5 km
(B) 1.75 km (B) 1.75 km
(C) 1.2 km (C) 1.2 km
(D) 1.25 km (D) 1.25 km
Answer: (C) 1.2 km Answer: (C) 1.2 km
A starts journey before B at a speed of 1 m/s. Hence A will be ahead of B
(10*60)s * 1m/s = 600m
Let A covers a distance of X after starting of B,
Then X + 600m = 2X
=> 2X - X = 600m
=> X = 600m
Hence B will cover a distance of 2X = 2 * 600m = 1200m = 1.2 kmA starts journey before B at a speed of 1 m/s. Hence A will be ahead of B
(10*60)s * 1m/s = 600m
Let A covers a distance of X after starting of B,
Then X + 600m = 2X
=> 2X - X = 600m
=> X = 600m
Hence B will cover a distance of 2X = 2 * 600m = 1200m = 1.2 km
