Time and distance

1) A man walks at 5kmph for 6hr and at 4km/h for 12hr. His average speed is 







2) A man can cover a distance in 1hr 24min by covering 2/3 of the distance at 4 km/h and the rest at 5km/h. The total distance is 






3) The ratio between the speeds of two trains is 7: 8. If the second train runs 440 kms in 4 hours, then the speed of the first train is: 





4) A train 140m long is running at 60kmph. In how much time will it pass a platform 260m long? 






5) In covering a distance of 30 km, A takes 2 hours more than B. If A doubles his speed, then he would take 1 hour less than B. A's speed is: 







6) Walking at the rate of 4kmph a man cover certain distance in 2hr 45 min. Running at a speed of 16.5 kmph the man will cover the same distance in. 






7) A train covers a distance in 50 min, if it runs at a speed of 48kmph on an average. The speed at which the train must run to reduce the time of journey to 40min will be 






8) Two persons starting from the same place walk at a rate of 5kmph and 5.5kmph respectively. What time will they take to be 8.5km apart, if they walk in the same direction? 





9) Excluding stoppages, the speed of a bus is 54 kmph and including stoppages, it is 45 kmph. For how many minutes does the bus stop per hour? 






10) A & B are two towns. A person covers the distance from A to B on cycle at 17kmph and returns to A by a boat running at a uniform speed of 8kmph. His average speed for the whole journey is
