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.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Speed = 72 km/hour = 72*(5/18) m/sec
= 20 m/sec

Total distance to be covered = 110+132 = 142 meters

Time = Distance/Speed
= 242/20 = 12.1 seconds

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

First convert speed into m/sec

Speed = 144*(5/18) = 40 m/sec

Time = Distance/speed
= 100/40 = 2.5 seconds

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

As trains are running in opposite directions so their relative speed will get added
So, Relative speed = 120 +80 = 200 kmph
= 200*(5/18) = 500/9 m/sec

Let the length of other train is x meter then

\begin{aligned}
\frac{x+270}{9} = \frac{500}{9} \\
=> x+270 = 500\\
=> x = 230
\end{aligned}

So the length of the train is 230 meters

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Distance covered = 120+120 = 240 m
Time = 12 s

Let the speed of each train = x.
Then relative velocity = x+x = 2x

2x = distance/time = 240/12 = 20 m/s

Speed of each train = x = 20/2 = 10 m/s

= 10*18/5 km/hr = 36 km/hr

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

\begin{aligned}
=> Time = 275* \frac{3}{110} = \frac{15}{2} \\
= 7.5 seconds
\end{aligned}
