Question: 1
A wall clock takes 9 seconds in tringing at 9O’ clock. The time, it will take in tringing at 11O’ clock, is
(A) 10 seconds
(B) 11 seconds
(C) 11.25 seconds
(D) 11.75 seconds
Ans: C
There are 8 intervals in 9 trings and 10 intervals in 11 trings.
Time duration of 8 intervals = 9 sec.
∴ Required time = Duration of 10 intervals = $$({9}/{8} × 10)$$sec = 11.25 sec.
Question: 2
In every 30 minutes the time of a watch increases by 3 minutes. After showing the correct time at 5 a.m; what time will the watch show after 6 hours?
(A) 10 : 54 a.m.
(B) 11 : 30 a.m.
(C) 11 : 32 a.m.
(D) 11 : 36 a.m.
Ans: D
Time gained in 1 hour = 6 min.
Time gained in 6 hours = (6 × 6) min = 36 min.
After 6 hours, the correct time is 11:00 a.m. and the watch will show 11:36 a.m.
Question: 3
Imagine that your watch was correct at noon, but then it began to lose 30 minutes each hour. It now shows 4 p.m. but it stopped 5 hours ago. What is the correct time now?
(A) 9.30 p.m.
(B) 10.30 p.m.
(C) 11 p.m.
(D) 1 a.m.
Ans: D
The watch loses $${1}/{2}$$ hour each hour. So, it must have taken 8 hours to show 4 pm. from 12 noon. Thus, it stopped at 8 p.m.
So, the correct time is 5 hours ahead of 8 p.m, i.e. 1 a.m.
Question: 4
There are two clocks, both set to show 10 pm on 21st January 2010. One clock gains 2 minutes in an hour and the other clock loses 5 minutes in an hour. Then by how many minutes do the two clocks differ at 4 pm on 22nd January 2010?
(A) 96 minutes
(B) 106 minutes
(C) 126 minutes
(D) 136 minutes
Ans: C
One clock show 10 pm. on 21st January 2010
One clock gains = 2 minutes
Other clock loses = 5 minutes
Time period between 10 pm and 4 pm = 18 hours.
∴ Required difference
= (2 × 18 + 5 × 18) minutes = 126 minutes.
Question: 5
At what time between 9 and 10 o’clock are the hands of a clock 23 minutes space apart?
(A) 9 : 18
(B) 9 : 23
(C) 9 : 24
(D) 9 : 26
Ans: C
At 9’o clock, the minute hand is 4 min. spaces behind the hour hand.
Thus, the minute hand has to gain (45 – 23) = 22 min spaces.
5 min are gained in 60 min.
22 min are gained in $$({60}/{55} × 22)$$ = 24 min.
∴ The hands will be 23 min spaces apart at 9: 24.
