Solution

A train 180 m long moving at the speed of 20 m/sec passes across a boy who is moving at a speed of 10 m/sec in the direction of the train.
Time taken by the train to overtake the boy = $$\frac{length\ of\ train}{relative\ speed}$$

= $$\frac{180}{20-10}$$

= $$\frac{180}{10}$$

= 18 seconds
