      Question

      A train passes a pole in 15 seconds and takes 18.75

      seconds to completely cross a platform that is 120 meters long. What is the length of the train?
      A 520 metres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 480 metres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 600 metres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 440 metres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Distance covered by the train in 15 seconds = length of the train Distance covered by the train in 18.75 seconds = length of the train + 120 metres So, distance covered by the train in (18.75 - 15) seconds = 120 metres So, speed of the train = 120 ÷ 3.75 = 32 m/s length of the train = 32 X 15 = 480 metres
