    Question

    A 140-metre train takes 7 seconds to cross a pole. If

    the same train takes 10 seconds to cross train 'E' that is travelling in opposite direction at 22 m/s on a parallel track, then find the length of train 'E'.
    A 460 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 220 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 280 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 215 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Speed of train 'A' = (140 ÷ 7) = 20 m/s Let the length of train 'E' be 'x' metres. ATQ; (140 + x) ÷ (20 + 22) = 10 Or, 140 + x = 420 So, 'x' = 420 - 140 = 280 Therefore, length of train 'E' = 280 metres
