      Question

      Train A of length 180 m is running at 54 km/h. Train B

      of length 220 m is running at 72 km/h in the same direction. In how many seconds will Train A completely overtake Train B?
      A 60 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 72 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 80 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 45 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Convert speeds to m/s: 54 km/h = 54 ├Ч (5/18) = 15 m/s 72 km/h = 72 ├Ч (5/18) = 20 m/s Relative speed (same direction) = 20 тИТ 15 = 5 m/s To overtake completely, distance covered = sum of lengths = 180 + 220 = 400 m Time = Distance / Relative speed = 400 / 5 = 80 s Answer: 80 seconds.
