So, there are two trains on parallel tracks facing opposite directions. The starting and ending points of the trains form a rectangle 5m x 150m. Two men standing at the tail end of each train start moving towards each other along the line of the train at the same time when the trains start moving such that each train is travelling in the direction of the man present in the train. The speeds of the men are 18 Kmph and 36 Kmph respectively with respect to the corresponding trains in which they are moving. The speed of trains are 3 times the speed of the corresponding men. After how much time, does the distance between the two men become minimum, given that the tracks are separated by 5m?

zeeshannasim
solution is as :- Speed of Ben/Speed of Sound = Time of Sound/Time of Ben Now put value as :- Speed of Sound is 330mps Time of Sound is (10:41-10:30)-(10min 48 sec) = 12 sec Time of Ben is 10min 48sec = 600sec+48sec=648 sec Put it in above formula and :- Speed of Ben/330=12/648 Solve it and ans will be 55/9 mps

Cost is proportional to rate ratio*seating capacity ratio*speed ratio Hence 3*5*7/2*2*4 =105/16
@jyoti_thakur said: hi, Can anyone help me in solving Escalators questions?? what is the logic behind in analysing relativity in escalators questions , up/down both.. for example i am posting one question: Pls help me out: Rajesh Walked down a descending escalator and took 40 steps to reach the bottom. Sunil started simultaneously from the bottom taking 2 steps for every one step taken by Rajesh. The time taken by Rajesh to reach the bottom from the top is same as time taken by SUnil to reach the top from Bottom. HOw many steps more than Rajesh did Sunil Take before they crossed each other on the escalator? a)20 b) 40 c) 3 4) cnt determined Thanks in advance
Speed of Rajesh = 1 steps/min
Speed of Sunil = 2 steps/min Speed of escalator = a steps/min
40 + 40*a = 2*40 - 40a => 80a = 40
=> a = (1/2) steps/min
Total steps = 60 Rajesh traveled = 40 steps Sunil must have traveles = 20 steps => Difference = 20 steps

Hi puys, I am not being able to understand how to solve the following question:
A man rows upstream in a river. When he covered 1 km from starting point his hat fell down and started to move downstream the man kept swimming upstream for 5 minutes but realised he has dropped his hat then rows down stream to catch the hat. Finally the hat and man meet at start. Find the speed of flow of river.
My take:
speed of hat=speed of river =h speed of man= m
since time will be constant for both to return back 1/h= 1/(m+h) + (m-h)5/(m+h) + 5

Perfect...infact I also created the same equation as above but left it as there were 2 unknowns and didnt solve to see if the 'm' cancels out or not..... Thanks for the solution... Please read the follows:
It may sound a bit weird but I actually had a solution which I was not being able to understand. Can you please explain me how the following reasoning works? They are saying Had the speed of stream been zero, the man would have got the hat after 10minutes. But because the hat was 1km behind that point, it means the stream covered 1kms in 10minutes. Hence 1km/10mins==.1km/min Sorry if I am being extremely stupid here but I am questioning back, in that case the man must have covered the downstream distance back to the start in 5mins. And if that is true this would lead to a generalisation, as it would not matter where the hat is dropped. If after 3 kms he drops it and remembers after 5mins also, he would cover the entire distance back, i.e. to the start in just 5mins. What I mean to say is the entire logic would hinge upon after what time he remembers the hat. I know its a bit too much to ask for but can someone please elucidate that explanation.:oops::oops:
MY TAKE : The solution you mentioned is more perfect. Suppose the speed of stream is zero. Then if man takes 5 min to realise i.e he travelled for 5 mins so for going back to that star point he will take 5mins since speed of stream is zero. So total of 10 mins he travelled. And the hat travelled 1 km by that time. So speed of hat = 1km/10mins. --------------------------------------------------- And suppose after 3km it drops and remember after 5 mins then speed = 3km/10 mins ---------------------------------------------------- And Just post your query ,dont apologise and all. We are here to share and learn :) cheers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some help needed from quant gurus.. i need some kind of shortcut for this question SM101201... ex 6(a) question 9. Time booklet too long question.. the solution given in the answer is a bit hig for me.. koi chhota sa sahi solution please
My approach : let the total distance =d path travelled my Amar=d1 ".........................wife= d-d1 speed of man = M "............car = C so total time had he walked = (d1/m) -(d-d1/c) = P ''..........................didnt walked = d/C = Q & P-Q=12 solving we get d1/M = 15 d1/C = 3 we are finding time for d1 distance covered so that we could find the time he would reach early so tym difference =12 mins & also he reaches 12 minutes earlier than 6 so total time lessened FROM 6'Oclock = 24 mins i.e 5.36
they say that (had he waited 4 his wife) so, Q=TW+d/c TW=waiting time
