Time Distance and Speed
sonia and rahul have to cross 125m road.sonia walks and rahul rides bicycle end the end of road and comes back to sonia. he completes two rounds in this way. After 2 rounds they walk together for 45 meters. If sonia walkswith the speed of 4m/sec what is the speed of rahul while riding bicycle?
a) 8m/s b) 14m/s c) 20m/s d) 10m/s
Read Solution (Total 9)
-
- i think ans- 8 m/s
time for sonia to cover 1 round (125 m) dist = 125/4 sec
in same time Rahul cover 2 rounds; then rahul speed = 2*125/(125/4) = 8m/s - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(14) No(8)
- Question language is not clear Aaditya... "....rides bicycle end the end of road..."... WTF language????

- Distance covered by sonia in walking when rahul was riding on bicycle = 125-45 = 80 m
waking speed of sonia is given i.e 4m/sec
so, time taken by sonia to cover this 80 m is = 80/4=20 sec.
Now,in this 20 seconds Rahul completed 2 rounds
So,time taken by rahul to complete 1 round by bicycle = 20/2=10 sec
Distance covered by rahul through riding is 80 m because after this he walked remaining 45 m together with sonia
So, the speed while riding bicycle will be = Distance/time=80/10 = 8m/sec - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(2)
- After 2 rounds they walk together for 45 meters ... there is no use of it....
sonia will take 125/4 sec to cover 1 round 125 meter
In same time rahul cover 2 round means 250 meter
125/4=250/v
v=8 m/s - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(1)
- I think C) 20m/s is the option.
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(8)
- I think a) 8m/s bcz
rahul 2 rounds distance=125+125+125+125=500mts
from t=d/s
t=500/8(also written as 250/4) or 500/14 or 500/20 or 500/10
sonia 1st round=125+125mts
t=250/4 so option a is right - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(7)
- can anyone answer correctly
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
- 8 m/s its two round
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(7)
- speed=dstance/time >> 125-40 = 80/4 = 20 m/s ans.
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(7)
