Q: Answer-A train that is 200 meters long passes a platform that is 350 meters long in a specific amount of ti...

ATQ, Let the speed of the train is X ms. Statement I According to the question, 200 350X 554 Or, 550X 554 Or, X 40 ms Time taken to cross the bridge 200 115040 135040 seconds So, data in statement I alone is suicient to answer the question. Statement II Let the time taken by the train to cross the platform and the bridge be 11x seconds and 27x seconds, respectively. According to the question, 200 35011x 1150 20027x So, 5 5 So, data in statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.
