Statement (I): The epicyclic gear train has a central gear and an epicyclic gear which produces epicyclic motion being moved by a crank arm. Statement (II): The arm contains the bearings for the epicyclic gear to maintain two gears in mesh. 
There is only one rail track between stations A and B on a railway line. One hour after the northbound superfast train N leaves station A for station B, the southbound passenger train S reaches station A from station B. The speed of superfast train is twice that of express train E, while the speed of passenger train S is half of that of train E. On some one day train N leaves from station A to station B 20 minutes late than its usual schedule. Both Train N and Train S have increased their speed to maintain the schedule as per the table. If the superfast train doubles its speed, then what should be the ratio (approximately) of the speed of the passenger train to the speed of the superfast train so that the passenger train reaches the station on that day at the exact scheduled time.
An epicyclic-train dynamometer consists of a simple epicyclic train of gears.

The speed of car is S km/hr running on the road besides a railway track. If the speed of the train is (S + 144) km/hr and car is D meter distance ahead of the engine of train. The train will pass the car in 21 seconds. If the speed of the car is 60 km/hr and the speed of the train is (S + 110) km/hr. The car is (D – 240) meter distance ahead of the engine of the train and the train will pass the car in 20 seconds. The length of the train is (D + 160) m. Then, what is the value of S?
