Ques:- A jogger running at 9 km/hr along side a railway track is 240 m ahead of the engine of a 120 m long train running at 45 km/hr in the same direction. In how much time will the train pass the jogger?
Recent Answer : Added by Ben Gulliano On 2023-05-23 15:53:20:

– While the train is moving, the jogger will also be running in the same direction.
– for the head(engine) of the train to get to the current position of the jogger 240m away, it will take:
45km/hr => 12.5m/s => 240/12.5 = 19.2 seconds.

– But in the same period of time, the jogger will still be running and will have moved to a new location by: 9km/hr => 2.5m/s => 2.5 * 19.2 = 48m

To get to the new location at the speed of 12.5m/s will take the train:
48/12.5 = 3.84sec

In this additional time, the jogger will move forward by:
3.84 * 2.5 = 9.6m

at a speed of 12.5m/s, it will take the train less than a second to cover the additional 9.6m

If we add the distance the jogger will cover in 1 second to 9.6, it is still less than what the train can cover per second. let us see (9.6 + 2.5 = 12.1)

Therefore, the head of the train will pass the runner at approximately: 19.2 + 3.84 + 1 => 24.04 seconds.

For the train to completely pass the runner, it will need its whole length of 120m to be in front of the runner.

This will take an additional (9.6 + 2) seconds.

Therefore for the length of the train to be ahead of the runner it will take approx. 35.65 (24.04 + 9.6 + 2) seconds

Ques:- 2 men r playing tossing a coin. If one of them wins he gets 1$ from the loser. At the end of a no. of games, one of them had lost 3$ and the other won 3 times. How many games did they play?
Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2022-09-29 15:53:16:

Let and A and B are playing and A has 3$ and B won 3 times.

Total money earn by A = no of games A won – no of games A loss
if A loss game means B won.
Therefore
Total money earn by A = no of games A won – no of games B won
3 = no of games A won -3
no of games A won=6
So
A won = 6 games
B won = 3 games

Hence total no of games is 9

Recent Answer : Added by S pushpa On 2021-06-17 10:44:18:

Let A=5x,B=3x,C not given so consider C=x
In triangle total angle=180°
A+B+C=180°
5x+3x+x=180°
9x=180°
X=180°/9
X=20°
A=5(20)=100°
B=3(20)=60°
C=20°
Therefore A=100° is the largest angle
Ans: 100°
