A man starts walking from point A to point B at 4 km/hr. After 30 minutes, a woman starts from point A at 6 km/hr. If the woman reaches point B 20 minutes earlier than the man, then the distance between A and B in km is ___

Two locations A and B are at diametrically opposite ends of a circular track. Rekha starts running along the track from location A in the clockwise direction. Sajal starts running simultaneously along the track in the anticlockwise direction from location B. If the length of the circular track is 14 km, and the speeds of Rekha and Sajal are in the ratio 5: 2, then the distance, in km, travelled by Rekha, when they meet at location B for the first time, is

Two swimmers, Ankit and Bipul, start swimming from the opposite ends of a swimming pool at the same time. Ankit can cover the length of the pool once in 10 minutes. Bipul can cover the length of the pool once in 15 minutes. They swim back and forth for 80 minutes without stopping. The number of times they meet each other is

A boat goes 96 km upstream in 8 hours and covers the same distance moving downstream in 6 hours. On the next day it starts from point A, goes downstream for 1 hour, then upstream for 1 hour, and repeats this for four more times, that is, 5 upstream and 5 downstream journeys. Then the boat would be

Vinita drives a car which has four gears. The speed of the car in the fourth gear is five times its speed in the first gear. The car takes twice the time to travel a certain distance in the second gear as compared to the third gear. In a 100 km journey, if Vinita travels equal distances in each of the gears, she takes 585 minutes to complete the journey. Instead, if the distances covered in the first, second, third, and fourth gears are 4 km, 4 km, 32 km, and 60 km, respectively, then the total time taken, in minutes, to complete the journey, will be

A helicopter flies along the sides of a square field of side length 100 kms. The first side is covered at a speed of 100 kmph, and for each subsequent side the speed is increased by 100 kmph till it covers all the sides. The average speed of the helicopter is

When Geeta increases her speed from $12$ km/hr to $20$ km/hr, she takes one hour less than the usual time to cover the distance between her home and office. The distance between her home and office is ___________ km.

In a 400-metre race, Ashok beats Bipin and Chandan respectively by 15 seconds and 25 seconds. If Ashok beats Bipin by 150 metres, by how many metres does Bipin beat Chandan in the race?

A train left point A at 12 noon. Two hours later, another train started from point A in the same direction. It overtook the first train at 8 PM. It is known that the sum of the speeds of the two trains is 140 km/hr. Then, at what time would the second train overtake the first train, if instead the second train had started from point A in the same direction 5 hours after the first train? Assume that both the trains travel at constant speeds.

Two friends run a 3-kilometer race along a circular course of length 300 meters. If their speeds are in the ratio 3:2, the number of times the winner passes the other is __________.

Two small insects, which are $x$ metres apart, take $u$ minutes to pass each other when they are flying towards each other, and $v$ minutes to meet each other when they are flying in the same direction. Then, the ratio of the speed of the slower insect to that of the faster insect is
