Answer : 2. "5 m/h"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 5 m/h Explanation: As the distance travelled is constant, the time taken is inversely proportional to speed. Let 'u' be the speed of the current and 'v' be the speed of the boat. Speed of the boat downstream = v + u & upstream = v - u => v+u/v-u = 30/20 => v/u = 5 => v = 5u => v + u = 6u = 10/20/60 miles/hr => 6u = 30 m/h => u = 5 m/h
Q: The difference between the time taken by two trains to travel a distance of 350 km is 2 hours 20 minutes. If the difference between their speeds is 5 km/hr, what is the speed of faster train ? 2491 05b5cc6c9e4d2b4197774df6a

Answer : 2. "30 kmph"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 30 kmph Explanation: Let the speed of the faster train be 'S' kmph Then speed of the slower train will be '(S-5)' kmph Time taken by faster train = 350/S hrs Time taken by slower train = 350/(S-5) hrs 350s-5 - 350s = 2 hrs 20 min = 213 = 73 => S = 30 km/hr.

Answer : 2. "222.5 degrees"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 222.5 degrees Explanation: Apply the formula for finding the angle:Angle=(30h-(11/2)m( where m stands for minutes and h stands for hours)Hence, 30x11 - 11/2x35 = 330 - 192.5 = 137.5 degreesThe reflex angle = 360 - 192.5 degree = 222.5 degrees.
