The time taken by a man to travel 55 m with the wind and came back to the starting point, is 16 seconds. If the speed of the wind is 37.5% of that of man without wind, then find the average speed of man during the whole journey.
The speed of six bikes B1, B2, B3, B4, B5 and B6 has been compared. The speed of the B6 exceeds just three bikes. No two bikes have the same speed. The speed of B4 is more than that of B2 but less than that of B6. The speed of B3 is not less than that of B5. The speed B2 is not minimum. If the speed of B5 is not less than that of B2, then which of the following pair of bikes has more speed than that of B4?
Study the two cases and answer in terms of relation between the two cases Case 1: The average speed of the bike is \(3\frac{3}{4}\) times the average speed of the bus. A car covers 720 km in 10 hours. How much distance (in km) will a bike cover in 50 minutes if the speed of the bus is half of the speed of the car? Case 2: The average speed of bike is \(1\frac{2}{5}\) times the average speed of the car. A bus covers 441 km in 7 hours. How much distance (in km) will a bike cover in 45 minutes if the speed of the car is twice the speed of the bus?
The outcome of the spot speed studies carried out at a certain stretch of a highway are as follows. 50th percentile speed = 46 km/h ; 75th percentile speed = 54 km/h ; 85th percentile speed = 60 km/h ; 95th percentile speed = 75 km/h ; 98th percentile speed = 84 km/h ; 100th percentile speed = 95 km/h What is the speed (in km/h units) to be taken to check the geometric design elements.
