running towards each other on parallel tracks, one at the rate 60 km/hr and another at 48 km/hr. In how many seconds will they be clear of each other from the moment they meet?Solution
Required time = Sum of the lengths of trains / Relative speed Relative speed = 60 + 48 = 108 kmph = (108 × 5)/18 = 30 m/sec Required time = (190 + 170)/30 = 360/30 = 12 seconds
