Ques:- Two trains of equal length when moving in opposite direction takes 5 sec. to cross each other completely and when moving in same direction takes 15 sec. Find the ratio of their speed.

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
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.

Ques:- In how much time will a train of length 100 m, moving at 36 kmph cross an electric pole?
Recent Answer : Added by JAQ On 2021-06-21 17:40:13:
time = distance / speed
speed = 36*(5/18) m/s=10m/s
distance = 100m
time=100/10s = 10sec

Ques:- A,B and C needs 8, 12 and 16 days respectively to finish a task. How many days will it take if A works for 2 days then B works on it until 25% of the job is left for C to do, and C completes the work?
Recent Answer : Added by Deven Sharma On 2023-05-31 18:36:37:
To solve this problem, we can break it down into steps:
Step 1: Determine the individual rates of work for A, B, and C.
If A needs 8 days to finish the task, then their work rate is 1/8 of the task per day.
If B needs 12 days to finish the task, then their work rate is 1/12 of the task per day.
If C needs 16 days to finish the task, then their work rate is 1/16 of the task per day.
Step 2: Calculate the combined work rate of A and B.
If A works for 2 days, their contribution will be 2 * (1/8) = 1/4 of the task completed.
If B works until 25% of the job is left for C, then they will complete 75% of the task.
Step 3: Calculate the time it takes for B to complete 75% of the task.
Since B’s work rate is 1/12 of the task per day, it will take B (75%)/(1/12) = 9 days to complete 75% of the task.
Step 4: Calculate the remaining work for C.
If B completes 75% of the task, then the remaining work for C is 100% – 75% = 25% of the task.
Step 5: Calculate the time it takes for C to complete the remaining work.
Since C’s work rate is 1/16 of the task per day, it will take C (25%)/(1/16) = 4 days to complete the remaining 25% of the task.
Step 6: Calculate the total time required.
A worked for 2 days, B worked for 9 days, and C worked for 4 days, totaling 2 + 9 + 4 = 15 days.
Therefore, it will take a total of 15 days for A to work for 2 days, B to work until 25% of the job is left, and C to complete the remaining work.

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.
