A plane starts at 11:00 (Indian time) and lands at 16:30 (America time) in America.
If time difference between India and America is +5:30, then plane departs at 0:530 ( American time )
and lands at 16:30 (America time) in America.

So journey time is 16:30-05:30 = 11:00

so 11 hrs journey time....option 2

Koushik Paul   12 years AGO

When the time in America is 16.30 hrs(4.30 pm) then in India the time will be 16.30+5.30= 22.00 hrs (10.00 pm).
So total time taken (22.00-11.00)=11 hrs.

So the right option is 2) 11 ...

A.P.Singh   12 years AGO

A plane starts at 11:00 (Indian time) and lands at 16:30 (America time) in America.

Arrival time as per IST (indian time ) = 22:00 as time difference between India and America is +5:30 as per given condition.

Then journey time = 2200-1100 = 11 hrs

because the when the flight starts the indian time was 11:00 , at that time american time was- (11:00-5:30)=5:30. the plane lands at 16:30 in american time.
so the total flight time will be- (16:30-5:30)=11...so the ans will be 11.....

sandeep de   12 years AGO

here when the plane started from india then indian time was 11.00...but then american time was 11.00-5.30 or 5.30
and the plane reached america at 16.30
so time difference = 16.30-5.30=11

here if we take indian time is less by 5.30 then there would be no time difference..that's not possible
