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
\begin{aligned}
=> Time = 275* \frac{3}{110} = \frac{15}{2} \\
= 7.5 seconds
\end{aligned}
1. Two trains 140 m and 160 m long run at the speed of 60 km/hr and 40 km/hr respectively in opposite directions on parallel tracks. The time which they take to cross each other, is
- 9.8 seconds
- 10.8 seconds
- 11.8 seconds
- 12.8 seconds
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Relative Speed = 60+40 = 100 kmph
= 100*(5/18) = 250/9 m/sec
Distance = 140+160 = 300 meters
Time = Distance/Speed
\begin{aligned}
300*\frac{9}{250} = \frac{54}{5} \\
= 10.8 \text{ seconds}
\end{aligned}
So the time trains will take to cross each other will be 10.8 seconds
2. 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
\begin{aligned}
= 66 \times\frac{5}{18} \\
= \frac{55}{3} m/sec\\
\text{Time it will take to pass man }\\
= 110 \times \frac{3}{55} \\
= 6 \text{ seconds}
\end{aligned}
3. A 300 meter long train crosses a platform in 39 seconds while it crosses a signal pole in 18 seconds. What is the length of the platform.
- 310 meter
- 335 meter
- 345 meter
- 350 meter
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Speed = Distance/time = 300/18 = 50/3 m/sec
Let the length of the platform be x meters
then
\begin{aligned}
Distance = Speed*Time \\
x+300 = \frac{50}{3}*39 \\
=>3(x+300)= 1950 \\
=> x = 350 \text{ meters}
\end{aligned}
4. 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,
\begin{aligned}
\frac{130+x}{30} = \frac{25}{2} \\
=> 2(130+x) = 750 \\
x = 245 \text{ meters}
\end{aligned}
So length of the bridge is 245 meters
5. Two trains 140 metre and 160 metre long run at the speed of 60 km/hr and 40 km/hr respectively in opposite direction on parallel tracks. What time these will take to cross each other ?
- 10.7 Seconds
- 10.8 Seconds
- 10.9 Seconds
- 11.8 Seconds
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Relative Speed = 60+40 = 100 Kmph
= 100*(5/18) = 250/9 m/sec
Distance to be covered = 140 + 160 = 300 metres
Time = Distance/Speed
\begin{aligned}
Time = 300*\frac{9}{250} \\
= \frac{54}{5} = 10.8\text{ seconds}
\end{aligned}
