Practice CAT Speed Distance in the app →Convert a speed of $90$ km/hr into metres per second.A car covers $360$ km in $4$ hours. Find its average speed.A man travels the first half of a journey at $30$ km/hr and the second half at $60$ km/hr. Find his average spIf the ratio of the speeds of A and B is $3 : 4$, what is the ratio of the times they take to cover the same dA train $150$ m long is moving at $54$ km/hr. How long will it take to completely cross a platform $250$ m lonTwo trains start at the same time from stations A and B, which are $600$ km apart, moving towards each other aConvert 72 km/h to m/s.A car covers the first 60 km at 30 km/h and the next 60 km at 60 km/h. What is the average speed for the wholeA bus travels equal distances at 40 km/h and 60 km/h. What is the average speed for the whole journey?A 150-metre train at 54 km/h crosses a stationary pole. How long does it take?A 200-metre train at 36 km/h crosses a 100-metre platform. How long does it take?A boat covers 24 km downstream in 2 hours and the same 24 km upstream in 3 hours. What is the speed of the strA car that usually takes 6 hours for a trip now takes 4 hours due to a higher speed. By what factor did the spPipe A fills a tank in 8 hours; Pipe B fills it in 12 hours. How long do both pipes take together?A driver increases his speed by 25%. By what percentage does the journey time decrease (for the same distance)For a fixed distance, if the speed is increased then the time taken:A journey takes 120 km at a steady 60 km per hour. The time taken is:Zaheeda doubles her speed on the same route. The time she takes:A car covers 300 km at 50 km per hour. At 75 km per hour the same trip would take:A train 150 m long runs at 54 km per hour. The time it takes to pass a pole is:A train 200 m long crosses a 100 m platform at 36 km per hour. It takes:A man travels equal distances at 40 km per hour and at 60 km per hour. His average speed is:A man covers a distance in 6 hours at 40 km per hour. To cover it in 4 hours he must travel at:A car uses 4 litres of petrol for 60 km. Its mileage in km per litre is:In uniform motion problems, distance is found by multiplying rate by:A car goes 70 miles per hour for 3 hours. The distance covered is:For the distance formula, 90 minutes must be written as:An express train takes 4 hours and a local train 5 hours for the same trip, the express being 12 mph faster. TWith the local train at 48 mph and the express 12 mph faster, the express train runs at:Because both trains leave Pittsburgh for Washington, the equation comes from the fact that they travel the:Christopher and his parents live how many miles apart?Christopher drove 1.5 hours and his parents 1 hour to meet, with him 10 mph faster. His parents' speed was:If the parents drove at 40 mph and Christopher was 10 mph faster, his speed was:When two people drive toward each other, the equation is that their distances:Two trucks leave a rest area in opposite directions, one at 70 mph. They are 325 miles apart after:For trucks travelling in opposite directions, the distances travelled must:If the rate is in miles per hour, the time in the distance formula must be in:Katie Mae walks to school in 30 minutes and bikes it in 15 minutes. In hours these times are:Katie Mae is 3 mph faster on her bike than on foot. Her walking speed is:If Katie Mae walks at 3 mph and bikes 3 mph faster, her biking speed is:Katie Mae's home is how far from her school?Hamilton's trip to Las Vegas from Orange County covers:Hamilton left home at 2:00 pm and entered the desert at 4:30 pm, so he drove in the city for:Hamilton's rate in the desert was how many times his rate in the city?Hamilton drove 40 mph in the city and in the desert he drove:The first step in a distance, rate and time problem, after reading it, is to:
