      Question

      Two trains 160 metres and 140 metres in length are

      running towards each other on parallel tracks, one at the rate 52 km/hr and another at 38 km/hr. In how many seconds will they be clear of each other from the moment they meet?
      A 12 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 10 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 15 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 6 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 11 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Required time = Sum of the lengths of trains / Relative speed Relative speed = 52 + 38 = 90 kmph = (90 × 5)/18 = 25 m/sec Required time = (160 + 140)/25 = 300/25 = 12 seconds
