How many seconds will a 500 meter long train take to cross a man walking with a speed of 3 km/hr in the direction of the moving train if the speed of the train is 63 km/hr

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

As we need to get answer in seconds, so never forget to convert speed into meter per second.

Speed = 30 km/hr = 30* 5/18 m/sec
= 25/3 m/sec

Distance = length of train = 100 meter

Required time =
\begin{aligned}
\frac{Distance}{Speed} \\
= \frac{100}{\frac{25}{3}} \\
= 100* \frac{3}{25} = 12 sec \\
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Speed = 45 Km/hr = 45*(5/18) m/sec
= 25/2 m/sec
Total distance = 360+140 = 500 meter

Time = Distance/speed
\begin{aligned}
= 500*\frac{2}{25} = 40 seconds
\end{aligned}

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:

First convert speed from km/hr to m/sec

So, Speed = 72*(5/18) = 20 m/sec
Time = 26 seconds

Let the length of the train be x meters.
We know, Distance = Speed*Time.
[you can remember this formula as remembering DUST = D*ST... Distance=Speed*Time]

x+250 = 20*26
=> x = 270 meters

So length of the goods train is 270 meter

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}
