Question 119

Two trains are moving in the same direction at speed of 54 km/h and 92 km/h, their lengths are 400 m and 360 m respectively. What is the time taken (in seconds) by faster train to cross the slower train?

Solution

Relative speed of trains (moving in same direction) = $$92-54=38$$ km/hr

= $$(38\times\frac{5}{18})$$ m/s = $$\frac{95}{9}$$ m/s

Total lengths = $$400+360=760$$ m

Thus, time taken = $$\frac{760}{\frac{95}{9}}$$

= $$760\times\frac{9}{95}=72$$ seconds

=> Ans - (B)
