How long will a train 100m long Travelling at 45 kmph?

Answer - C

Explanation

90 kmph = ( 90 * 5/18) m/sec = 25 m /sec.

Answer - D

Explanation

35 m/sec = (35 * 18 / 5 ) km/hr = 126 km/hr.

Answer - D

Explanation

Speed of the train = ( 54 * 5 / 18) m/sec = 15 m / sec. Time taken to cross an electric pole = Time taken to cover 75m = ( 75 / 15 ) sec = 5 sec.

Answer - A

Explanation

Speed of the train= ( 63 * 5 / 18) m/sec = 35/2 m/sec. Time taken to cross the tunnel = Time taken to cover ( 415 + 285) m = ( 700 * 2/35 ) sec = 40 sec.

Answer - C

Explanation

Let the length of the train be x metres and its speed be y km/hr i.e. (5y/18 ) m/sec. Then, x / ( 5y / 18 ) = 3 ⇒ 18x = 15y ⇒ 6x = 5y. Also, ( x + 105) / ( 5y/ 18) = 8 ⇒ 18 ( x + 105 ) = 40y⇒ 9 ( x + 105 ) = 20y ⇒ 20y -9x = 945 ⇒ 24x – 9x = 945 ⇒ 15x = 945 ⇒ x= 63. ∴ 5y = ( 6 * 63 ) ⇒ y = ( 6 * 63 ) /5 = 378 / 5 = 75.6 Hence, the length of the train is 63 m and its speed is 75.6 km/hr.

Answer - D

Explanation

Speed of the train relative to man = ( 50 – 5 ) km/hr = ( 45 * 5 / 18) m/sec = 25/2 m/ sec. Distance covered in passing the man = 125m. ∴ Time taken = 125 / ( 25/2) sec = ( 125 * 2 / 25) sec = 10 sec.

Q 7 - A train 110 m long is running at 60 km / hr. In what time will it pass a man, running in the direction opposite to that of the train at 6 km/hr?

A - 9 sec

B - 8 sec

C - 7 sec

D - 6 sec

Answer - D

Explanation

Speed of the train relative to man = ( 60 + 6 km/hr = 66 km/hr = ( 66 * 15 / 18 ) m/sec = 55/3 m/sec. Distance covered in passing the man = 110m. Time taken = 110//( 55/3) sec = ( 110 * 3 / 55 ) sec = 6 sec.

Answer - D

Explanation

Let the speed of the train be x km/hr. Relative speed = ( x + 5 ) km /hr = 5 ( x+ 5 ) / 18 m/sec. Distance covered in passing the man = 100m. ∴ 100/ 5 ( x+5) / 18 = 9 ⇒ 45 ( x+ 5) = 1800 ⇒ x + 5 = 40 ⇒ x = 35. Speed of the train = 35 km/hr.

Q 9 - Two train 128 m and 132m long are running towards each other on parallel lines at 42 km/hr and 30 km / hr respectively . In what time will they be clear of each other from the moment they meet?

A - 13 sec

B - 14 sec

C - 15 sec

D - 16 sec

Answer - A

Explanation

Relative speed = ( 42 + 30 ) km/hr = 72 km/hr = ( 72 * 5 / 18 ) m/sec = 20 m / sec. Distance covered in passing each other = ( 128 + 132) m = 260m. ∴ Required time = 260 / 20 sec= 13 sec.
