Two trains of length 100 m and 200 m are 100 m apart. They start moving towards each other on parallel tracks, at speeds 54 kmph and 72 kmph. After how much time will the trains meet?

Answer: C

They are moving in opposite directions, relative speed is equal to the sum of their speeds.
Relative speed = (54 + 72)*5/18 = 7*5 = 35 mps.
The time required = d/s = 100/35 = 20/7 sec.

Kiran travels from A to B by car and returns from B to A by cycle in 7 hours. If he travels both ways by car he saves 3 hours. What is the time taken to cover both ways by cycle?

Answer: A

Let the time taken to cover from A to B in car and cycle be x hours and y hours respectively.

x + y = 7 --- (1) ; 2x = 4 --- (2)

solving both the equations, we get y = 5

So, time taken to cover both ways by cycle = 2y hours = 10 hours.
