Q:

What is the difference between creating String as new() and literal ?

Answer

When we create string with new() Operator, it’s created in heap and not added into string pool while String created using literal are created in String pool itself which exists in PermGen area of heap.



String s = new String("Test");

does not put the object in String pool , we need to call String.intern() method which is used to put them into String pool explicitly. its only when you create String object as String literal e.g. String s = "Test" Java automatically put that into String pool.

Q:

The two trains of lengths 400 m, 600 m respectively, running at same directions. The faster train can cross the slower train in 180 sec, the speed of the slower train is 48 kmph. Then find the speed of faster train  ?

A) 68 kmph B) 52 kmph
C) 76 kmph D) 50 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 68 kmph

Explanation:

Let the speed of the faster train be 'X' kmph,
Then their relative speed= X - 48 kmph
To cross slower train by faster train,
Distance need to be cover = (400 + 600)m = 1 km. and
Time required = 180 sec = 180/3600 hr = 1/20 hr.
Time = Distance/Speed
=> 1/20 = 1/(x-48)
X = 68 kmph

Q:

A jogger running at 9 kmph alongside a railway track is 240 metres ahead of the engine of a 120 metre long train running at 45 kmph in the same direction. In how much time will the train pass the jogger  ?

A) 10 sec B) 48 sec
C) 36 sec D) 56 sec
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 36 sec

Explanation:

Given speed of jogger = 9 kmph
Speed of train = 45 kmph
As they are in same direction,
Relative speed = 45 - 9 = 36 kmph = 36x5/18 = 10 m/s
Distance = 240 + 120 = 360 mts
Time = distance/speed = 360/10 = 36 sec.
