Question : A policeman spots a thief at a distance of 200 m and starts chasing him. While the policeman runs at a speed of 9 km/hr, the thief runs at a speed of 7 km/hr. After how long will the policeman catch the thief?

Option 1: 6 minutes

Option 2: 3 minutes

Option 3: 10 minutes

Option 4: 5 minutes

Team Careers360 13th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 6 minutes


Solution : Relative speed of policeman = Speed of the policeman - Speed of the thief
= 9 km/hr – 7 km/hr
= 2 km/hr
The policeman has to cover a relative distance of 200 m (0.2 Km) to catch the thief. So,
Time = $\frac{\text{distance}}{\text{speed}}$

Question : In $\triangle$ABC, $\angle$B = 35°, $\angle$C = 65° and the bisector of $\angle$BAC meets BC in D. Then $\angle$ADB is:

Option 1: 40°

Option 2: 75°

Option 3: 90°

Option 4: 105°

Team Careers360 9th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 105°


Solution :
Given:
In $\triangle$ABC, $\angle$B = 35°, $\angle$C = 65°
So, $\angle$A = 180° – 35° – 65° = 80°
The bisector of $\angle$BAC meets BC in D.
∴ $\angle$BAD = $\frac{1}{2}×\angle$A = $\frac{1}{2}$ × 80° = 40°
Therefore $\angle$ADB = 180° – $\angle$BAD – $\angle$B

Question : By selling a fan for Rs. 600, a man loses 10%. To make a gain of 20%, the selling price of the fan should be:

Option 1: Rs. 900

Option 2: Rs. 1000

Option 3: Rs. 700

Option 4: Rs. 800

Team Careers360 17th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Rs. 800


Solution : Here CP denotes cost price and SP denotes selling price.
CP = SP$(\frac{100}{100-Loss\%})$
⇒ CP = 600$(\frac{100}{100-10})$
⇒ CP = 600$(\frac{100}{90})$
⇒ CP = Rs. $\frac{6000}{9}$
SP = CP$(\frac{100+Profit\%}{100})$
⇒ SP = $\frac{6000}{9}(\frac{100+20}{100})$
⇒ SP = $\frac{6000}{9}(\frac{120}{100})$
⇒ SP = Rs. 800
Hence, the

Question : Two boats are travelling at the speed of 36 km/hr and 54 km/hr respectively towards each other. What will be the distance between the two boats one second before they collide?

Option 1: 40 metres

Option 2: 35 metres

Option 3: 25 metres

Option 4: 15 metres

Team Careers360 13th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 25 metres


Solution : Given: Two boats are travelling at the speed of 36 km/hr and 54 km/hr respectively towards each other.
Convert km/hr into m/s by multiplying $\frac{5}{18}$
36 km/hr = 36 × $\frac{5}{18}$ = 10 m/s
54 km/hr = 54 × $\frac{5}{18}$ = 15 m/s
