  1. Trains

    1. A car travels 120 km in 3 hours. Its speed is:

    • A. 30 km/h
    • B. 40 km/h (Correct)
    • C. 45 km/h
    • D. 60 km/h

    Explanation: Speed = distance/time = 120/3 = 40 km/h.

  2. Trains

    2. A train moving at 60 km/h covers what distance in 2 hours?

    • A. 100 km
    • B. 110 km
    • C. 120 km (Correct)
    • D. 140 km

    Explanation: Distance = speed × time = 60 × 2 = 120 km.

  3. Trains

    3. If a man runs at 12 km/h, the time taken to cover 36 km is:

    • A. 2 hr
    • B. 3 hr (Correct)
    • C. 4 hr
    • D. 5 hr

    Explanation: Time = distance/speed = 36/12 = 3 hours.

  4. Trains

    4. A 150 m train passes a pole in 10 seconds. Its speed is:

    • A. 10 m/s
    • B. 12 m/s
    • C. 15 m/s (Correct)
    • D. 18 m/s

    Explanation: Speed = 150/10 = 15 m/s.

  5. Trains

    5. A 200 m train crosses a platform 300 m long in 25 seconds. Speed is:

    • A. 18 m/s
    • B. 20 m/s (Correct)
    • C. 22 m/s
    • D. 25 m/s

    Explanation: Total distance = 200 + 300 = 500 m, speed = 500/25 = 20 m/s.

  6. Trains

    6. Boat speed in still water is 12 km/h and stream speed is 3 km/h. Downstream speed is:

    • A. 9
    • B. 12
    • C. 15 (Correct)
    • D. 18

    Explanation: Downstream speed = 12 + 3 = 15 km/h.

  7. Trains

    7. With still water speed 12 km/h and stream speed 3 km/h, upstream speed is:

    • A. 6
    • B. 8
    • C. 9 (Correct)
    • D. 10

    Explanation: Upstream speed = 12 - 3 = 9 km/h.

  8. Trains

    8. A person travels from A to B at 30 km/h and returns at 20 km/h. Average speed for the whole journey is:

    • A. 24 km/h (Correct)
    • B. 25 km/h
    • C. 26 km/h
    • D. 27 km/h

    Explanation: Average speed = 2ab/(a+b) = 2×30×20/50 = 24.

  9. Trains

    9. Two trains move in opposite directions at 40 km/h and 50 km/h. Relative speed is:

    • A. 10
    • B. 40
    • C. 50
    • D. 90 (Correct)

    Explanation: Opposite directions means speeds add.

  10. Trains

    10. Two trains move in same direction at 60 km/h and 45 km/h. Relative speed is:

    • A. 10
    • B. 15 (Correct)
    • C. 20
    • D. 25

    Explanation: Same direction means difference of speeds.

  11. Trains

    11. 72 km/h is equal to:

    • A. 18 m/s
    • B. 20 m/s (Correct)
    • C. 22 m/s
    • D. 24 m/s

    Explanation: Multiply by 5/18: 72 × 5/18 = 20 m/s.

  12. Trains

    12. 15 m/s is equal to:

    • A. 36 km/h
    • B. 45 km/h
    • C. 54 km/h (Correct)
    • D. 60 km/h

    Explanation: Multiply by 18/5: 15 × 18/5 = 54 km/h.

  13. Trains

    13. Two persons are 180 km apart and move towards each other at 50 km/h and 40 km/h. They meet after:

    • A. 1 hr
    • B. 2 hr (Correct)
    • C. 3 hr
    • D. 4 hr

    Explanation: Relative speed = 90 km/h, so time = 180/90 = 2 hours.

  14. Trains

    14. If speed increases by 25%, time taken to cover a fixed distance decreases by:

    • A. 10%
    • B. 15%
    • C. 20% (Correct)
    • D. 25%

    Explanation: New time factor = 1/1.25 = 0.8, so time decreases by 20%.

  15. Trains

    15. A 120 m train moving at 54 km/h crosses a man walking in opposite direction at 6 km/h in:

    • A. 6 sec
    • B. 7 sec (Correct)
    • C. 8 sec
    • D. 9 sec

    Explanation: Relative speed = 60 km/h = 50/3 m/s. Time = 120 ÷ (50/3) = 7.2 sec, so nearest is 7 sec.
