Section B
11. Original speed is 60 miles per hour.
If the speed is reduced by 10 miles per hour, then the new speed is
= 50 miles per hour
Distance to be covered is 300 miles.
The formula to find time is
Distance
Time
Speed

Time taken to cover 300 miles distance at the speed of 50 miles per hour is
50
= 6 hours

15. Speed of train = 54 km/hr
5
= 54 × m/sec
18
= 15 m/sec
Length of the train = 150 meters
length of train
Therefore, time taken by the train to cross a pole =
speed of train
150
= sec = 10 sec
15
Thus, train takes 10 seconds to cross the pole.
