    Question

    Train A of length 180 m crosses a stationary pole in 9

    seconds. Train B of length 120 m crosses a stationary pole in 8 seconds. In how much time (in seconds) will the two trains cross each other when running in the same direction?
    A 28 secs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 60 secs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 37 secs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 48 secs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Speed of A = 180/9 = 20 m/s Speed of B = 120/8 = 15 m/s Same direction → relative speed = 20 − 15 = 5 m/s Total distance = 180 + 120 = 300 m Time = 300 / 5 = 60 s.
