    Question

    Train β€˜A’ running with a speed of 126 km/hr can

    cross a standing goods train of 4 times its length in 25 seconds. Find the time taken by 500 metres long train β€˜B’ which is coming from opposite direction of train β€˜A’, with a speed of 10 m/s, to cross train β€˜A’.
    A 15 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 5 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 14 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 10 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the length of train β€˜A’ be β€˜x’ metres Therefore, length of the goods train = β€˜4x’ metres Speed of train β€˜A’ = 126 Γ— (5/18) = 35 m/s According to the question, 4x + x = 35 Γ— 25 => 5x = 875 => x = 175 Therefore, time taken by train β€˜B’ to cross train β€˜A’ = {(175 + 500)/(35 + 10)} = 15 seconds
