Question Detail
A train is moving at a speed of 132 km/hour. If the length of the train is 110 meters, how long will it take to cross a railway platform 165 meters long.
- 7 second
- 7.5 second
- 8 second
- 8.5 second
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
As we need to calculate answer in seconds, so first convert speed into meter/sec.
we know 1 km/hr = 1*(5/18) m/sec
So, Speed = 132* (5/18) = 110/3 m/sec
Distance need to be covered in passing the platform =
Length of train + length of platform = 110 + 165
= 275 meters
Time = Distance/Speed
=>Time=275∗3110=152=7.5seconds
1. A train speeds past a pole in 15 seconds and a platform 100 meter long in 25 seconds. What is length of the train ?
- 140 meter
- 145 meter
- 150 meter
- 155 meter
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Let the length of the train is x meter and Speed of the train is y meter/second
Then x/y = 15 [because distance/speed = time]
=> y = 15/x
=>x+10025=x15x=150 meters
So length of the train is 150 meters
2. Two trains of equal length are running on parallel lines in the same direction at 46 km/hr and 36 km/hr. The faster train passes the slower train in 36 seconds. The length of each train is ?
- 40 meter
- 45 meter
- 50 meter
- 55 meter
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Let the length of each train is x meter
Distance will be x+x = 2x
Relative Speed = 46-36 = 10 km/hr
= 10*(5/18) = 25/9 m/sec
Distance = Speed*Time
2x=259∗362x=100=>x=50
So length of both the trains are 50 meters
3. A train is running with a speed of 60 kmph and its length is 110 metres. Calculate the time by which it will pass a man running opposite with speed of 6 kmph.
- 2 second
- 4 second
- 6 second
- 8 second
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
From the given question,
we will first calculate the speed of train relative to man,
=> ( 60 + 6 ) = 66 km/hr ( we added 6 because man is running opposite )
Convert it in metre/second
=66×518=553m/secTime it will take to pass man =110×355=6 seconds
4. A train, 800 meter long is running with a speed of 78 km/hr. It crosses a tunnel in 1 minute. What is the length of the tunnel ?
- 650 meter
- 555 meter
- 500 meter
- 458 meter
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Let length of tunnel is x meter
Distance = 800+x meter
Time = 1 minute = 60 seconds
Speed = 78 km/hr = 78*5/18 m/s = 65/3 m/s
Distance = Speed*Time
=>800+x=653∗60=>800+x=20∗65=1300=>x=1300−800=500
So the length of the tunnel is 500 meters.
[If you want to calculate it practically, then please have your copy and pen and take a ride of Kalka to Shimla toy train in north India. It has many tunnels on the way :) ]
5. Length of train is 130 meters and speed of train is 45 km/hour. This train can pass a bridge in 30 seconds, then find the length of the bridge.
- 230 meters
- 235 meters
- 240 meters
- 245 meters
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Let the length of bridge is X [as always we do :)]
Speed of train is = 45*(5/18) m/sec = 25/2 m/sec
Time = 30 seconds
Total distance = 130+x
We know Speed = distance/time
so,
130+x30=252=>2(130+x)=750x=245 meters
So length of the bridge is 245 meters
