      Question

      A train can cross a pole in 32 seconds. While if the

      train increased its speed by 45% then time taken by it to cross 289 metres long platform is 42 seconds. Find the time taken by the train to cross a 120 metre long tunnel.
      A 56 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 58 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 46 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 44 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let speed of train is โ€˜xโ€™ m/s So, length of train = 32 ร— x = 32x metres And, 32x + 289 = 1.45 ร— x ร— 42 Or, 28.9x = 289 Or, x = 10 m/s So, length of train = 32 ร— 10 = 320 metres Desired time = (320 + 120)/10 = 44 seconds
