Time Speed and Distance Questions for SSC Exams

Ratio of speed of cycle : Train = 1x : 12x ………..(1) Distance travelled by P = 3 × 3.5 = 10.5 km

1x = 12.5 kmph Distance travelled by Q = 2 × 3.5 = 7 km

12x = 12 × 12.5 = 150 kmph Total distance travelled = 17.5 km

Speed of Train = 150 kmph Distance left = 16 km

Distance covered by Train = 150×3.5 = 525 km Total distance = 33.5 km

03) Answer: C 05) Answer: C

Solution: Solution:

According to the question, According to the question,

Speed = Distance / Time ………….(1) Let the speed of Train A = S kmph

For Bike: Let the speed of Train B = 2S kmph

Let speed of Bike = B kmph A B

Time taken = 8 hours. Speed 1S 2S

Distance travelled = D km Time 2t 1t

B = D/8 ………………(1) Time difference = 1t

For Train: 1t = 6 hours

Speed of Train = T kmph Time taken by A = 12 hours

Time taken = 4 hours Speed of Train A = 480/12 = 40 kmph

Distance travelled = 2D 06) Answer: C

T = 2D/4 ……………(2) Solution:

Dividing eq (1) by eq (2) According to the question,

B : T = 16 : 1 Let the speed of Train = 4S kmph

04) Answer: A Let the speed of Car = S kmph

Time Speed and Distance Questions for SSC Exams

Time difference = 3t Putting it in equation, we get


X/y−x/(y+20)=7/4
3t = 12 hours
or, Y(y+20)=80x/7.........(2)
1t = 4 hours
On dividing Eq(1) by Eq(2),
Time taken Car = 16 hours
We get y = 60
Speed of Car = 960/16 = 60 kmph Substituting y = 60 in Eq(1), we get:
07) Answer: C x = 420 km.

Solution: Distance between two cities=420 Km.

According to the question, 09) Answer: A

Let the initial speed = S kmph Solution:

Initial time = t hours. According to the question,

S = 720/t………….(1) Speed = Distance / Time ………………(1)

New speed = S + 12 kmph For train A;

New time = t - 2 hours 72 = Distance / 81 ……………(2)

S + 12 = 720/t - 2 ……………(2) For Train B;

On solving eq (1) and eq (2) B = Distance / 64 ……………..(3)

We get S = 60 kmph From eq (2) and eq (3)

Time = 12 hours. Speed of train B = 91.125 kmph

08) Answer: B 10) Answer: D

Solution: Solution:

Let distance = x km and Speed = y kmph. Then, According to the question,


The speed were increased by 10km/hr Speed = Distance / Time ………………(1)
X/y−x/(y+10)=1
For train A;
or, y(y+10)=10x........(1)
54 = Distance / 12 ……………(2)
Further increase the speed 10 km/hr we could have saved
another 45 min = 3/4 hrs. For Train B;
Therefore, total time saved
=1+3/4=7/4hrs 63 = Distance / X ……………..(3)

Time Speed and Distance Questions for SSC Exams

From eq (2) and eq (3) Speed of P = 7 kmph

Time taken by train B = 10.29 hours. Speed of Q = 8 kmph

11) Answer: A Distance covered by P in 3 hours = 21 km

Solution: Distance covered by P after 4th hour = 28 km

According to the question, Distance covered by Q after 4th hour = 8 km

Speed = Distance covered / Time taken Difference after 4th hour = 20 km


…………………(1)
Lead decreasing per hour = 1 km
( 3 + 2 ) = 60 / Time taken
Distance travelled by Q = 20 × 8 = 160 km
Time taken = 12 hours
Total distance travelled by Q = 160 + 8 = 168 km
Hence, they will meet after 12 hours.
So from here we can say that Q will caught P at 168 km
12) Answer: C
14) Answer: B
Solution:
Solution:
According to the question,
According to the question,
Speed of A = 9 kmph
Let the speed of Bike = B kmph
Speed of B = 8 kmph
Let the speed of Car = C kmph
Distance covered by B in 2 hours = 16 km
Distance = 800 km
rd
Distance covered by B after 3 hour = 24 km
500 / C + 300 / B = 22.6 ………(1)
st
Distance covered by A after 1 hour = 9 km
300 / C + 500 / B = 20 ………..(2)
rd
Difference after 3 hour = 16 km
Solving eq (1) and eq (2)
Lead decreasing per hour = 1 km
We get;
Distance travelled by A = 16 × 9 = 144 km
Speed of Bike = 50 kmph
So from here we can say that A will caught B at 153 km
Speed of Car = 30 kmph

Let the speed of Bus = B kmph Reduced speed = 3S

Let the speed of Car = C kmph Distance covered with actual speed = X km

Distance = 550 km Remaining distance = (500 - X) km

250 / C + 300 / B = 12.5 ………(1) X/4S + (500 - X)/3S = 8 ………..(1)

350 / C + 200 / B = 12 ………..(2) Since we have only one equation and two variables so
the answer will be Cannot be determined.
Solving eq (1) and eq (2)
18) Answer: A
We get;
Solution:
Speed of Bus = 40 kmph
According to the question,
Speed of Car = 50 kmph
Initial New
16) Answer: B
Time 6t 5t
Solution:
Speed 5 6
According to the question,
Difference = 1t
Let the initial speed = 4S
1t = 1/6 hours.
Reduced speed = 3S
Initial Timing = 60 minutes=1 hours.
Distance covered with actual speed = 100 km
Distance = 120 km
Remaining distance = 100 km
Initial Speed = 120×1
100/4S + 100/3S = 10 ………..(1)
Speed = 120 kmph
On solving eq (1)

Time Speed and Distance Questions for SSC Exams

Total stoppage in 8 hours = 16 - 1 = 15 stoppages Speed of Car = 40 kmph

20) Answer: A 22) Answer: A

Solution: Solution:

According to the question, According to the question,

Let the speed of Train = S kmph Initial New

Time taken by the train = t hours. Speed 6s 5s

First case : Time 5t 6t

S = 360/t ………………(1) Difference = 1t

Second case : 1t = 1/4 hours.

S + 15 = 360/t-2 ……………(2) Initial Timing = 75 minutes.

On solving the above equations we get; Distance = 60 km

S = 45 kmph Initial Speed = 60×4/5

Time = 8 hours. Speed = 48 kmph

Increased speed = 60 kmph 6s = 48 kmph

21) Answer: C 1s = 8 kmph

Solution: Decrease in speed = 8 kmph

According to the question, 23) Answer: C

Let the speed of Bus = B kmph Solution:

Let the speed of Car = C kmph According to the question,

Distance = 200 km Initial New

40% of D / C + 60% of D / B = 8 ………(1) Speed 9s 11s

60% of D / C + 40% of D / B = 7 ………..(2) Time 11t 9t

Solving eq (1) and eq (2) Difference = 2t

We get; 2t = 4 hours.

Speed of Bus = 20 kmph 1t = 2 hours.

100 unit = 100 km Required time = 30 + 4 = 34 minutes.

1 unit = 1 km 27) Answer: D

New distance = 99 km Solution: According to the question,

New speed = 9 units Speed of father = 10 kmph

New speed = 9 × 1 = 9 kmph Time = 5.5 hours.

25) Answer: A Distance travelled by father = 55 km

Solution: Speed of Son = 4 kmph

According to the question, Time = 5.5 hours.

1t = 2 hours. Time 5t 8t

Actual timings = 8 hours. Difference = 3t

Distance = 15 × 8 = 120 km 3t = 27 minutes.

Required time = 8 - 1 = 7 hours. 1t = 9 minutes.

Speed = Distance / Time New time = 72 minutes.

Speed = 120/7 New minutes = 1(1/5) hours.

Speed = 17.14 kmph Speed = Distance/Time

29) Answer: B Speed = 180×5/6

Solution: According to the question, Speed = 150 kmph

Actual New 31) Answer: C

Speed 10 12 Solution:

Time 6t 5t According to the question,

Difference = 1t Initial New

1t = 2 hours. Speed 10x 7x

Actual timings = 12 hours. Time 7t 10t

Distance = 10 × 12 = 120 km Difference = 3t.

Required time = 12 - 1 = 11 hours. 3t = 3 hours.

Speed = Distance / Time 1t = 1 hours.

Speed = 120/11 Distance = Speed × Time

Time Speed and Distance Questions for SSC Exams

41) Answer: D Solution:

Solution: According to the question,

According to the question, Speed of train A = 20 m/s = 72 kmph

Car Cycle Time taken by A = 540/72 = 7.5 hours.

Distance 7x 2x Speed of Train B = 50 kmph

Time 2y 7y Time taken = 540/50 = 10.8 hours.

We know that; Time difference = 3.3 hour.

Speed = Distance / Time …………….(1) 44) Answer: B

Scar = 7x/2y ………………(2) Solution:

SCycle = 2x/7y…………….(3) According to the question,

Taking ratios of eq (2) and eq (3) Speed ratio of A , B and C = 12 : 5 : 4 ……………….(1)

Scar : SCycle = 49 : 4 Let distance = 60 km

42) Answer: A We know that -

Solution: When distance is same; Speed α 1/Time ………….(2)

According to the question, Time ratio of A , B and C = 5 : 12 : 15

Let Speed of Train = T = 36 kmph 45) Answer: A

Average speed of Car and Train = 40 kmph Solution:

Let speed of Car = C kmph Let required distance = x

Average speed = 2 × T × C / ( T + C ) …………..(1) According to the question,

40 = 2 × 36 × C / ( 36 + C ) X/16 – X/20=15/60

On solving , (5x-4x)/80=1/4

C = 45 kmph X=20 x 1/4

Distance covered by Car = 45 × 3.25 X=20 km
