10 train questions time speed distance SSC CGL questions Set 63 - time to solve 12 mins

Problem 1.

The ratio of lengths of two trains is 5: 3 and the ratio of their speeds is 6 : 5. The ratio of time taken by them to cross a pole is,

  2. 27 : 16
  3. 5 : 6
  4. 25 : 18

Problem 2.

A man can swim 3 km/hr in still water. If the velocity of the stream is 2 km/hr, the time taken by him to swim to a place 10 km upstream and back is,

  1. $12$ hrs
  2. $8\displaystyle\frac{1}{3}$ hrs
  3. $10$ hrs
  4. $9\displaystyle\frac{1}{3}$ hrs

Problem 3.

A man standing on a platform finds that a train takes 3 seconds to pass him and another train of same length moving in the opposite direction takes 4 secs. The time taken by the trains to pass each other will be,

  1. $2\displaystyle\frac{3}{7}$ secs
  2. $5\displaystyle\frac{3}{7}$ secs
  3. $3\displaystyle\frac{3}{7}$ secs
  4. $4\displaystyle\frac{3}{7}$ secs

Problem 4.

A boat covers 12 km upstream and 18 km downstream in 3 hrs, while it covers 36 km upstream and 24 km downstream in $6\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}$ hrs. What is the speed of the current?

  1. 2.5 km/hr
  2. 2 km/hr
  3. 1.5 km/hr
  4. 1 km/hr

Problem 5.

In covering a certain distance, the speed of A and B are in the ratio 3 : 4. A takes 30 mins more than B to reach the destination. The time taken by A to reach the destination is,

  1. $1$ hrs
  2. $2\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}$ hr
  3. $1\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}$ hr
  4. $2$ hrs

Problem 6.

A man completes 30 km of a journey at a speed of 6 km/hr and the remaining 40 km journey in 5 hrs. His average speed for the whole journey is,

  1. $7$ km/hr
  2. $7.5$ km/hr
  3. $6\displaystyle\frac{4}{11}$ km/hr
  4. $8$ km/hr

Problem 7.

A cyclist after cycling a distance of 70 kms on the second day finds that the ratio of distance covered by him on the first two days is 4 : 5. If he travels a distance of 42 kms on the third day, the ratio of distances traveled on the third day and the first day is,

  1. 4 : 3
  2. 3 : 4
  3. 3 : 2
  4. 2 : 3

Problem 8.

A and B run a 5 km race on a round course of 400 m. If their speeds are in the ratio of 5 : 4, the number of times the winner passes the other is,

  1. 5
  2. 1
  3. 2
  4. 3

Problem 9.

If a boy walks from his house to his school at the rate of 4 km/hr, he reaches the school 10 mins earlier than the scheduled time. However if he walks at the rate of 3 km/hr he reaches 10 mins late. Find the distance of the school from his house.

  1. 4 km
  2. 5 km
  3. 4.5 km
  4. 6 km

Problem 10.

In a 100 m race, Kanu defeats Ritwik by 5 secs. If the speed of Kanu is 18 km/hr, the speed of Ritwik is,

  1. 14.4 km/hr
  2. 14 km/hr
