    Question

    A person is jogging at 10 m/sec in the same direction of

    a train. The train crosses him in 6 seconds. If the speed of the train is 90 km/hr, find the time it takes to cross a tunnel of 60 metres.
    A 4 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

    Solution

    Train speed = 90 × (5/18) = 25 m/sec
    Relative speed = 25 - 10 = 15 m/sec
    L / 15 = 6 ⇒ L = 90 metres
    Time to cross the tunnel = (90 + 60)/25 = 150/25 = 6 seconds
