    • Question

      Two trains of length 300 metres and 280 metres are

      moving in opposite directions with speeds 12 m/s and 18 m/s. If initially they are 200 metres apart, then find the time taken by them to cross each other.
      A 30 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 26 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 28 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 26 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Relative speed = 12 + 18 = 30 m/s (When two objects are moving in opposite direction, so speeds are added)

      Therefore, required time = (300 + 280 + 200) ÷ 30 = (780 ÷ 30) = 26 seconds
