Speed of a goods train is 72 km/hr. This train crosses a 250 meter platform in 26 seconds. Then find the length of goods train.

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 B

Explanation:

First person speed = 2*(5/18) = 5/9 m/sec
Second person speed = 4*(5/18) = 10/9 m/sec

Let the length of train is x metre and speed is y m/sec

then,
\begin{aligned}
\frac{x}{y-\frac{5}{9}} = 9 \\
=> 9y-5 = x \\
=> 9y-x = 5 .....(i) \\
Also, \\
\frac{x}{y-\frac{10}{9}} = 10 \\
90y-9x = 100 .....(ii)\\

\text{from (i) and (ii), we get,} \\
x=50
\end{aligned}
So length of train is 50 metre

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the speeds of the two trains be x m/sec and y m/sec respectively.

Then, length of the first train = 27x metres,
Length of the second train = 17y metres.
[because distance = speed*time]

\begin{aligned}
\frac{27x+17y}{x+y} = 23 \\
=> 27x + 17y = 23x + 23y \\
=> 4x = 6y \\
=> \frac{x}{y} = \frac{6}{4}
\end{aligned}
So ratio of the speeds of train is 3:2

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Speed = 60*(5/18) m/sec = 50/3 m/sec

Length of Train(Distance) = Speed * Time

\begin{aligned}
= \frac{50}{3}*9 = 150 meter
\end{aligned}

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

\begin{aligned}
2x = \frac{25}{9}*36 \\
2x = 100 \\
=> x = 50
\end{aligned}
So length of both the trains are 50 meters
