Calspan corporation Interview Questions, Process, and Tips

C will take 4 days and the total number of days taken by a,b and c will be 12 days.

time = distance / speed
speed = 36*(5/18) m/s=10m/s
distance = 100m
time=100/10s = 10sec

Let the number of one rupee coins in the bag be x.
Number of 50 paise coins in the bag is 93 – x.
Total value of coins
[100x + 50(93 – x)]paise = 5600 paise
=> x = 74

Let’s assume the length of each train is ‘L’ and the speeds of the two trains are ‘V₁’ and ‘V₂’ respectively.

When the trains are moving in the opposite direction, their relative speed is the sum of their individual speeds. The total distance they need to cover is the sum of their lengths. Since they cross each other completely in 5 seconds, we can set up the following equation:

(V₁ + V₂) × 5 = 2L

When the trains are moving in the same direction, their relative speed is the difference between their individual speeds. The total distance they need to cover is the difference between their lengths. Since they cross each other completely in 15 seconds, we can set up the following equation:

(V₁ – V₂) × 15 = 2L

Now, let’s solve these equations to find the ratio of their speeds.

From the first equation, we have:
(V₁ + V₂) × 5 = 2L
V₁ + V₂ = (2L) / 5

From the second equation, we have:
(V₁ – V₂) × 15 = 2L
V₁ – V₂ = (2L) / 15

Let’s add these two equations together:
V₁ + V₂ + V₁ – V₂ = (2L) / 5 + (2L) / 15
2V₁ = (6L + 2L) / 15
2V₁ = (8L) / 15
V₁ = (4L) / 15

So, the speed of the first train is (4L) / 15.

Now, let’s substitute this value back into the first equation to find V₂:
(4L) / 15 + V₂ = (2L) / 5
V₂ = (2L) / 5 – (4L) / 15
V₂ = (6L – 4L) / 15
V₂ = (2L) / 15

Therefore, the speed of the second train is (2L) / 15.

The ratio of their speeds is given by:
(V₁ / V₂) = ((4L) / 15) / ((2L) / 15)
(V₁ / V₂) = 4L / 2L
(V₁ / V₂) = 2

So, the ratio of their speeds is 2:1.

Three man’s on day work = 1/6+1/7+1/8=73/168
three man’s can complete the work in 1/73/168 days
= 168/73 days
Now if they works together fro the alternet days they will
complete the worksin 2*168/73 days
(If three mans working for the alternate days then work
completion time will be doubbled)

For optimal size of a project team..
the % increase in staff size should be “Zero”
reason:
additional member directly proportional to increase in
staff size..

upstream = 25km/hr
downstream=35km/hr
so…if the speed of current would be 5km/hr and boat speed = 30km/hr
so that it will be change towards upstream and downstram…

Relative velocity of trains = 49kmph -25 kmph = 24kmph
=6.67m/s
Time taken to cross the first train = 10 sec
Length of the second train = Relative Velocity * Time taken
to cross the first Train = 6.67 *10 = 66.7 metres

3*2+1 = 7
15*2+1 = *31*
31*2+1 = 63
63*2+1 = 127
127*2+1 = 255
255*2+1 = 511

Let the numbers be x and x + 2.
Then, (x + 2)2 – x2 = 84
⇒ 4x + 4 = 84
⇒ 4x = 80
⇒ x = 20.
∴ The required sum
= x + (x + 2)
= 2x + 2
= 42

My greatest achievement is to avoid Giving up since it made me who l am today and l am able to walk fearless towards achieving my goals.
