A fisher man can push 2 km against the stream in 20 min. What's more, return in 15 min. What is the rate of the current?
  1. ক) 1 km/hr
  2. খ) 2 km/hr
  3. গ) 3 km/hr
  4. ঘ) None of these
ব্যাখ্যা

Speed upstream = (2/20)×60 km/hr
= 6 km/hr
Speed downstream = (2/15)×60 km /hr
= 8km/hr
Speed of the current
= 1/2(8-6) km /hr
= 1 km/hr

.
The current of a stream keeps running at 4 km in 60 minutes. A boat goes 6 km and back to the beginning stage in 2 hours. The rate of the boat in still water is:
  1. ক) 6 km/hr
  2. খ) 7.5 km/hr
  3. গ) 8 km/hr
  4. ঘ) 6.8 km/hr
ব্যাখ্যা

Let the speed in still water be x km/hr.
Then,
Speed downstream = (x+ 4) km/hr,
speed upstream = (x-4) km/hr.
6/(x+4) + 6 /(x-4) = 2
=>  1/(x+4) +1/(x-4)=2/6 = 1/3
=> (x+4)+(x-4)/x2-16= 1/3
=> x2-16= 6x
=>  x2 -6x-16= 0
=> (x-8) (x+2) = 0
=>  x = 8.
∴ Speed of boat in still water = 8 km/hr.

.
A vessel goes 6 km in an hour in still water. It requires thrice as much investment in covering the same separation against the current. Velocity of the current is:
  1. ক) 2 km/hr
  2. খ) 3 km/hr
  3. গ) 4 km/hr
  4. ঘ) 5 km/hr.
ব্যাখ্যা

Speed in still water =6 km/hr.
Speed against the current =6/3 km/hr = 2 km/hr
Let the speed of the current be x km/hr
so, 6-x = 2
=> x = 4 km/hr.

.
A steamer goes downstream from one point to the other in 4 hrs. It covers the same distance upstream in 5 hrs. If the speed of the stream is 2 km/hr, the distance between the two points is
  1. ক) 50 km
  2. খ) 60 km
  3. গ) 70 km
  4. ঘ) 80 km
ব্যাখ্যা

Let the distance be D km.
∴ Downstream Speed = D/4 km/hr
And Upstream Speed = D/5 km/hr
Given, Speed of current = 2 km/hr
Speed of the current = 1/2 ×(Downstream Speed - Upstream Speed)
2 = 1/2 ×(D/4 - D/5)
D = 80 km

.
The speed of a boat in still water is 25 kmph. If it can travel 10 km upstream in 1 hr, what time it would take to travel the same distance downstream?
  1. ক) 40 minutes
  2. খ) 22 minutes
  3. গ) 15 minutes
  4. ঘ) 30 minutes
ব্যাখ্যা

Speed of boat in still water = 25 km/hr
Speed upstream
= 10/1
= 10 km/hr
Speed of the stream = (25-10) = 15 km/hr
Speed downstream = (25+15) = 40 km/hr
Time taken to travel 10 km downstream
= 10/40 hours
= (10×60)/40
= 15 minutes

.
A man can row 40 kmph in still water and the river is running at 10 kmph. If the man takes 1 hr to row to a place and back, how far is the place?
  1. ক) 18.75 km
  2. খ) 16.5 km
  3. গ) 2.25 km
  4. ঘ) 12.15 km
ব্যাখ্যা

Let the distance be x
Speed upstream = (40-10) = 30 kmph
Speed downstream = (40+10) = 50 kmph
Total time taken = 1 hr
⇒ x/50 + x/30 = 1
⇒ 8x/150 = 1
⇒ x = 150/8 = 18.75 km

.
A boat covers a certain distance downstream in 4 hours but takes 6 hours to return upstream to the starting point. If the speed of the stream be 3 km/hr, find the speed of the boat in still water
  1. ক) 12 km/hr
  2. খ) 13 km/hr
  3. গ) 14 km/hr
  4. ঘ) 15 km/hr
ব্যাখ্যা

Let the speed of the water in still water = x
Given that speed of the stream = 3 kmph
Speed downstream
= (x+3) kmph
Speed upstream
= (x−3) kmph
He travels a certain distance downstream in 4 hour and come back in 6 hour.
ie, distance travelled downstream in 4 hour = distance travelled upstream in 6 hour
since distance = speed × time,
we have
(x+3)4= (x−3)6
⇒ (x+3)2= (x−3)3
⇒ 2x+6= 3x−9
⇒ x= 6+9= 15 kmph

.
A man takes twice as long to row a distance against the stream as to row the same distance in favour of the stream. The ratio of the speed of the boat (in still water) and the stream is:
  1. ক) 2 : 1
  2. খ) 3 : 1
  3. গ) 1 : 2
  4. ঘ) 1 : 3
ব্যাখ্যা

Let speed upstream = x
Then, speed downstream = 2x
Speed in still water
= (2x+x)/2
= 3x/2
Speed of the stream
= (2x−x)/2
= x/2
Speed in still water : Speed of the stream
= 3x/2 : x/2
= 3:1

.
A boat can travel with a speed of 22 km/hr in still water. If the speed of the stream is 5 km/hr, find the time taken by the boat to go 54 km downstream
  1. ক) 3 hours
  2. খ) 2 hours
  3. গ) 4 hours
  4. ঘ) 5 hours
ব্যাখ্যা

Speed of the boat in still water = 22 km/hr
speed of the stream = 5 km/hr
Speed downstream = (22+5) = 27 km/hr
Distance travelled downstream = 54 km
Time taken = distance/ speed
= 54/27
= 2 hours

১০.
In one hour, a boat goes 14 km/hr along the stream and 8 km/hr against the stream. The speed of the boat in still water (in km/hr) is:
  1. ক) 8 km/hr
  2. খ) 11 km/hr
  3. গ) 12 km/hr
  4. ঘ) 10 km/hr
ব্যাখ্যা

Let speed of the boat in still water = a and speed of the stream = b
Then
a+b = 14
a-b = 8
Adding these two equations, we get 2a = 22
=> a = 11
ie, speed of boat in still water = 11 km/hr

১১.
A man's speed with the current is 15 km/hr and the speed of the current is 2.5 km/hr. The man's speed against the current is:
  1. ক) 9 km/hr
  2. খ) 12.5 km/hr
  3. গ) 8.5 km/hr
  4. ঘ) 10 km/hr
ব্যাখ্যা

Man's speed with the current = 15 km/hr
=> speed of the man + speed of the current = 15 km/hr
Speed of the current is 2.5 km/hr
Hence, speed of the man
= 15-2.5
= 12.5 km/hr
Man's speed against the current = speed of the man - speed of the current
= 12.5-2.5
= 10 km/hr

১২.
For a motorboat that covers a certain distance downstream in 2 hours & returns in 3 hours, what would be its speed in still water if the speed of stream is 6 km/hr?
  1. ক) 9 km/hr
  2. খ) 15 km/hr
  3. গ) 30 km/hr
  4. ঘ) 36 km/hr
ব্যাখ্যা

Hint: If a boat moves to a certain distance downstream in 't1 ' hours & returns the same distance upstream in time 't2' hours, then
Speed of boat in still water = y{(t2+t1)/(t2–t1)} km/hr.
With the given parameters,
y = 6 km/hr, t1 = 3 hrs, t2 = 2 hrs
We can find, Speed of boat in still water
(x) = 6{(3+2)/(3–2)}= 30 km/hr

১৩.
A train running at a speed of 90 km/hr crosses a platform double its length in 36 seconds. What is the length of the platform in meters?
  1. ক) 200
  2. খ) 300
  3. গ) 450
  4. ঘ) None of these
ব্যাখ্যা

Let the length of the train be x metres.
Then, length of the platform = 2x metres.
Speed of the train = 90× (5/18) m/sec
= 25m/sec
∴(x+2x)/25 = 36
⇒ 3x= 900
⇒ x= 300
Hence, length of platform
= 2x= (2×300)m= 600m

১৪.
Two trains 140 m and 160 m long run at the speed of 60 km/hr and 40 km/hr respectively in opposite directions on parallel tracks. The time (in seconds) which they take to cross each other, is-
  1. ক) 9
  2. খ) 9.6
  3. গ) 10
  4. ঘ) 10.8
ব্যাখ্যা

Relative speed = (60+40) km/hr
= 100×(5/18) m/sec
= 250/9 m/sec.
Distance covered in crossing each other
= (140+160)m= 300m
Required time
= 300×(9/250) sec
= 54/5 sec
= 10.8 sec

১৫.
A train speeds past a pole in 20 seconds and speeds past a platform 100 meters in length in 30 seconds. What is the length of the train?
  1. ক) 100 meters
  2. খ) 150 meters
  3. গ) 180 meters
  4. ঘ) 200 meters
ব্যাখ্যা

Let the length of the train be x meters and its speed be y m/sec.
Then, xy = 20
⇒ y = x/20
∴ (x+100)/30 = x/20
⇒ 30x = 20x + 2000
⇒ 10x = 2000
⇒ x = 200 meters

১৬.
Two trains, each 100 m long, moving in opposite directions, cross each other in 8 seconds. If one is moving twice as fast the other, then the speed of the faster train is:
  1. ক) 30 km/hr
  2. খ) 45 km/hr
  3. গ) 60 km/hr
  4. ঘ) 75 km/hr
ব্যাখ্যা

Let the speed of the slower train be x m/sec.
Then, speed of the faster train = 2x m/sec.
Relative speed = (x+2x) m/sec = 3x m/sec.
So,(100 + 100)/8 = 3x
⇒ 24x = 200
⇒ x = 25/3
So, speed of the faster train =50/3 m/sec
= (50/3) x (18/5) km/hr
= 60 km/hr.

১৭.
Two stations A and B are 110 km apart on a straight line. One train starts from A at 7 a.m. and travels towards B at 20 kmph. Another train starts from B at 8 a.m. and travels towards A at a speed of 25 kmph. At what time will they meet?
  1. ক) 9 a.m.
  2. খ) 10 a.m.
  3. গ) 10.30 a.m.
  4. ঘ) 11 a.m.
ব্যাখ্যা

Suppose they meet x hours after 7 a.m.
Distance covered by A in x hours = 20x km.
Distance covered by B in (x-1) hours = 25(x-1) km.
20x+25(x-1) = 110
45x = 135
So, x = 3.
So, they meet at 10 a.m.

১৮.
Two trains running in opposite directions cross a man standing on the platform in 27 seconds and 17 seconds respectively and they cross each other in 23 seconds. The ratio of their speeds is-
  1. ক) 1:3
  2. খ) 3:2
  3. গ) 3:4
  4. ঘ) None of these
ব্যাখ্যা

Let the speeds of the two trains be x m/sec and y m/sec respectively.
Then, length of the first train = 27x metres
and length of the second train = 17y metres
∴ 27x+17y/(x+y) = 23
⇒ 27x+17y = 23x+23y
⇒ 4x=6y
⇒ x/y= 3/2

১৯.
A train 125 m long passes a man, running at 5 km/hr in the same direction in which the train is going, in 10 seconds. The speed of the train is:
  1. ক) 45 km/hr
  2. খ) 50 km/hr
  3. গ) 54 km/hr
  4. ঘ) 55 km/hr
ব্যাখ্যা

Speed of the train relative to man
= 125/10 m/sec
= 25/2 m/sec
= (25/2)×(18/5) km/hr
= 45km/hr
Let the speed of the train be x km/hr. Then, relative speed=(x−5)km/hr
∴x−5= 45
⇒x = 50km/hr

২০.
A passenger train of 200 m runs at a speed of 55 km/hr. A person traveling in it observes that the goods train moving in opposite direction takes 10 seconds to cross him. Find the speed of the goods train, if it is 250 m long.
  1. ক) 30.23 m/s
  2. খ) 29.73 m/s
  3. গ) 42.11 m/s
  4. ঘ) 55 m/s
ব্যাখ্যা

Given: Speed of passenger train = 55 km/hr, length of goods train (P) = 250, length of passenger train (Q)= 200m
Hint:
Time = (P+Q)/(V1+V2) sec
Goods train and the passenger train move in opposite direction. Hence, the relative speed is the addition of two speeds.
Convert 55 km/hr into m/s
55 x (5/18) = 15.277 m/s
Therefore,
10 = (250+200)/(15.27+V2)
V2 = 29.73 m/s

A person is walking at a speed of 5 km/hr along a railway track. If he is 200 m ahead of the train which is 100 m long and runs at a speed of 60 km/hr in same direction, then what is the time required to pass the person?
  1. ক) 19.64 sec
  2. খ) 15.19 sec
  3. গ) 3.2 min
  4. ঘ) 5 min
ব্যাখ্যা

Given: Speed of the person = 5 km/hr, length of train = 100 m, speed of train = 60 km/hr
Speed of train relative to walking person = (60–5) = 55 km/hr
Convert km/hr into m/s
55 km/hr = 55 x(5/18) = 15.27 m/s
Distance to be covered by the train = 200 + 100 = 300 m
Therefore, time taken by the train to cross the person
= Distance over speed =300/15.27 = 19.64 sec

২২.
A train takes 10 sec to pass a signal post and covers a distance of 10 km in 15 min. Find the length of train?
  1. ক) 100.1 m
  2. খ) 223.1 m
  3. গ) 111.1 m
  4. ঘ) 120.3 m
ব্যাখ্যা

We know,
Speed =Distance/ Time
Speed =(10/15) 60 = 40×(5/18)m/sec
= 11.1 m/sec
Length of train = (Speed x Time)
= (11.11x10)
= 111.1 m
