Time and Distance Problems with Solutions for Competitive Exams

Q.1. An athlete runs 200 metres race in 24 second. His speed is :-

Solution: 

$$ Speed = {200\over4}m/sec={25\over3}m/sec=\left({25\over3}×{18\over5} \right) km/hr=30km/hr$$

Q.2. A person crosses a 600m long street in 5 minutes. What is his speed in km per hour ?

Solution:

$$ Speed = \left({600\over5×60} \right)m/sec=2 \ m/sec=\left(2×{18\over5} \right)=7.2 \ km/hr$$

Q.3.How long will a boy take to run round a square field of side 35 metres, if he runs at the rate of 9 km/hr ?

Solution:

$$ speed = 9 km/hr =\left(9×{5\over18}\right)m/sec={5\over2}m/sec$$

 $$ Distance = (35×4)m=140m.$$

  $$ ∴ Time \ taken= \left(140×{2\over5}\right)sec=56 \ sec$$

Q.4. One of the two buses complete a journey of 300 km in   hours and the other a journey of 450 km in 9 hours. The ratio of their average speed is:

Solution:

$$ Ratio\ of \ Speed   =\left(300×{2\over15} \right):\left({450\over9} \right)=40:50=4:5$$

Q.5. The ratio between the speeds of two trains is 7 : 8. If the second train runs 400 kms in 4 hours, then the speed of the first train is:

Solution:

Let the speeds of two trains be 7x and 8x km/hr.

$$ Then, 8x={400\over4}=100→x=\left({100\over8} \right)=12.5$$
