InfiniteNow Posted October 10, 2006 Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 Mr. Moody grumbles about bad time-keeping trains from morning till night!. On one particular morning he was quiet justified. His train left on time for the one hour journey, to Clarksville, and it arrived 5 minutes late. However, Mr. Moody 's watch showed it to be 3 minutes early, so he adjusted his watch by putting it forward 3 minutes. His watch kept time during the day, and on the return journey in the evening the train started on time, according to his watch, and arrived on time, according to the station clock. If the train travelled 25 percent faster on the return journey than it did on the morning journey, was the station clock fast or slow, and by how much?

Jay-qu Posted October 10, 2006 Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 assuming that the journey is supposed to take 55 mins, if the return journey takes 45 mins the clock would be 10 mins fast (without an relativistic corrections :) ) ? hmm.. that was my initial guess, but then on closer insection I think its a little more complicated, I tried some algebra and came up with 22.5 slow and 32.5 fast :hyper: back to the drawing board methinks!

InfiniteNow Posted October 11, 2006 Report Share Posted October 11, 2006 Which station clock?

Turtle Posted October 11, 2006 Report Share Posted October 11, 2006 The two time pieces mentioned are the station clock in Clarksville and the watch on the wrist of Mr. Moody... :beer: :beer: As written, the riddle mentions Moody's watch, a station clock in Clarksville (the first destination) and a station clock in the station he returns to from Clarksville. So, we have 3 timepieces here and I ask again which station clock does the riddle refer to?:beer: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
