Question : 6 [SSC CHSL 2012]
A train covers a distance of 10 km in 12 minutes. If its speed is decreased by 5 km/hr, the time taken by it to cover the same distance will be :
a) 13 minutes 20 sec
b) 13 minutes
c) 11 minutes 20 sec
d) 10 minutes
Answer »Answer: (a)
Using Rule 1,
Speed of train = $\text"Distance"/\text"Time"$
= $10/{12/60}$ kmph
= ${10 × 60}/12 = 50$ kmph
New speed = 45 kmph
∴ Required time = $10/45$ hour
= $2/9 × 60$ minutes
= $40/3$ minutes or 13 minutes 20 seconds
Question : 7 [SSC CGL Tier-1 2011]
A student goes to school at the rate of 2$1/2$ km/h and reaches 6 minutes late. If he travels at the speed of 3 km/h. he is 10 minutes early. The distance (in km) between the school and his house is
a) 4
b) 3
c) 1
d) 5
Answer »Answer: (a)
Let the required distance be x km.
$x/{5/2} - x/3 = 16/60$
${2x}/5 - x/3 = 4/15$
${6x - 5x}/15 = 4/15 ⇒ x = 4$ km.
Using Rule 10,
Here, $S_1 = 2{1}/2 , t_1 = 6, S_2 = 3, t_2$ = 10
Distance = ${(S_1 × S_2)(t_1 + t_2)}/{S_2 - S_1}$
= ${5/2 × 3(6 + 10)}/{3 - 5/2}$
= $15 × 16/60$ km = 4 km
Question : 8 [SSC CGL Tier-1 2011]
Walking at 5 km/hr a student reaches his school from his house 15 minutes early and walking at 3 km/hr he is late by 9 minutes. What is the distance between his school and his house ?
a) 8 km
b) 3 km
c) 2 km
d) 5 km
Answer »Answer: (b)
Let the required distance be x km.
Then, $x/3 - x/5 = 24/60$
${5x - 3x}/15 = 2/5$
${2x}/3 = 2$ ⇒ 2x = 2 × 3
x = 3 km
Using Rule 10,
Here, $S_1 = 3, t_1 = 9, S_2 = 5, t_2$ = 15
Distance = ${(S_1 × S_2)(t_1 + t_2)}/{S_2 - S_1}$
= ${(3 × 5)(9 + 15)}/{5 - 3}$
= $15/2 × 24/60$ = 3 km
Question : 9 [SSC CGL Tier-II 2012]
A train covers a distance between station A and station B in 45 minutes. If the speed of the train is reduced by 5 km/hr, then the same distance is covered in 48 minutes. The distance between station A and B is
a) 64 km
b) 80 km
c) 55 km
d) 60 km
Answer »Answer: (d)
Using Rule 1,Distance = Speed × TimeSpeed = $\text"Distance"/\text"Time"$ , Time = $\text"Distance"/\text"Speed"$1 m/s = $18/5$ km/h, 1 km/h = $5/18$ m/s
Let the distance between stations be x km, then speed of train
= $x/{45/60} = {4x}/3$ kmph
$x/{{4x}/3 - 5} = 48/60$
${3x}/{4x - 15} = 4/5$
16x - 60 = 15x
x = 60 km
Question : 10 [SSC CGL Tier-I 2014]
If a train runs at 70 km/hour, it reaches its destination late by 12 minutes. But if it runs at 80 km/ hour, it is late by 3 minutes. The correct time to cover the journey is
a) 2 hours
b) 1 hour
c) 59 minutes
d) 58 minutes
Answer »Answer: (b)
Distance of journey = x km
Difference of time
= 12 - 3 = 9 minutes
= $9/60$ hour = $3/20$ hour
$x/70 - x/80 = 3/20$
$x/7 - x/8 = 3/2$
${8x - 7x}/56 = 3/2$
$x/56 = 3/2$
$x = 3/2 × 56$ = 84 km
∴ Required correct time
= $84/70$ hours - 12 minutes
= $(84/70 × 60 - 12)$ minutes
= 72 - 12 = 60 minutes
= 1 hour
