      Question

      Kiran is sitting inside train X which is travelling at a

      speed of 55 km/h. Another train Y, whose length is four times the length of train X and travelling with a speed of 60 km/h (in opposite direction to that of train X) crosses Kiran in 18 seconds. Find the length of train X (in metres).
      A 217 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 255 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 144 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 295 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Relative speed = 55 + 60 = 115 km/h = 115 Γ— 5/18 = 31.94 m/s

      Let the length of train X be β€˜x’ meters

      So, 4x = 31.94 Γ— 18

      Or, 4x = 575

      Or, x = 143.75 β‰ˆ 144 metres
