      Question

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

      cross a standing goods train of 6 times its length in 30 seconds. Find the time taken by 200 metres long train β€˜B’ which is coming from opposite direction of train β€˜A’, with a speed of 20 m/s, to cross train β€˜A’.
      A 10 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 5 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 6 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 7 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€˜6x’ metres Speed of train β€˜A’ = 126 Γ— (5/18) = 35 m/s According to the question, 6x + x = 35 Γ— 30 => 7x = 1050 => x = 150 Therefore, time taken by train β€˜B’ to cross train β€˜A’ = {(150 + 200)/(30 + 20)} = 7 seconds
