A train leaves at 10 am from Delhi at the speed of 60km/hr to Agra, another train which is an express train leaves from Delhi at 120 km/hr at 2 pm to Agra following the same route , at what time does two trains meet each other ? Correct Answer 6 pm

Let the normal train be train A and the express train be train B 

From 10 am to 2 pm distance travelled by train A = 4 × 60 = 240 km

Let the train A moves a distance of x km after 2 pm before they meet ,

Now the express train B have to travel (240 + x) km in the same time as the time taken by train A to travel x km ;

⇒ (240 + x)/120 = x/60

⇒ 240 + x = 2x

⇒ x = 240 km

V time taken to travel 240 km by train A = 240 /60 = 4hr

⇒ They meet 4 hr after 2pm i.e. 6pm

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.
