What you'll learn

  • Master the fundamental concepts of Time, Speed, and Distance with a clear, step-by-step approach.
  • Solve a wide variety of GATE-style questions ranging from basic to advanced difficulty.
  • Learn shortcut techniques and smart tricks to save time in the exam.
  • Apply concepts to real-world problems and enhance logical reasoning ability.

Course content

1 section • 6 lectures • 1h 33m total length

  • Relation between Time, Speed & Distance7:40

    Explain the relation between time, speed, and distance using the formula distance = speed × time, with unit conversions and practice on usual time and speed.

  • Average Speed10:54

    Compute average speed by total distance over total time across legs, as 40 and 60 km/h yield 48 km/h. Apply the basic formula and two-speed shortcut when distances are equal.

  • Relative Speed21:47

    Explore relative speed concepts, where opposite-direction motions add and same-direction motions subtract, and apply these to train problems, including crossing platforms and moving objects, using distance equals speed times time.

  • Boats & Stream10:43

    Learn to solve boats and streams problems by using downstream sb+sw and upstream sb-sw, forming equations from distances and times to determine the boat's still-water speed.

  • Races11:01

    Derive speed ratios from race setups, such as a 100 m lead and finish, yielding 5:4, and explore dead heats and 200 m defeats by 40 m.

  • Exam Questions31:06

    Practice solving exam-style time, speed, and distance problems, from relative motion to trains, boats, and upstream-downstream scenarios. Learn to set up and solve equations to find distance, time, and speed.

Requirements

  • No prior knowledge of advanced mathematics required – concepts will be taught from the ground up.
