Question Detail
Two trains are running at 40 km/hr and 20 km/hr respectively in the same direction. Fast train completely passes a man sitting in the slower train in 5 seconds. What is the length of the fast train ?
- \begin{aligned} 27\frac{7}{9} \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 28\frac{7}{9} \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 29\frac{7}{9} \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 30\frac{7}{9} \end{aligned}
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
As Trains are moving in same direction,
So, Relative Speed = 40-20 = 20 kmph
= 20*(5/18) = 50/9 m/sec
Length of Train= Speed * Time
\begin{aligned}
Length = \frac{50}{9}*5 \\
= \frac{250}{9} \\
=27\frac{7}{9}
\end{aligned}
1. How long does a train 110 meters long running at the speed of 72 km/hour take to cross a bridge 132 meters in length ?
- 15 seconds
- 12.1 seconds
- 10 seconds
- 8.1 seconds
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
2. A jogger running at 9 kmph alongside a railway track is 240 metres ahead of the engine of a 120 metre long train running at 45 kmph in the same direction. In how much time will the train pass the jogger ?
- 30 seconds
- 32 seconds
- 34 seconds
- 36 seconds
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Speed of train relative to jogger = (45-9) = 36 kmph
= 36*(5/18) = 10 m/sec
Distance to cover = 240 + 120 = 360 metres
Time = Distance/Speed
So,
\begin{align}
Time = \frac{360}{10} = 36 \text{ Seconds}
\end{align}
3. A train overtakes two persons who are walking in the same direction in which the train is going, at the rate of 2 kmph and 4 kmph and passes them completely in 9 and 10 seconds respectively. Find the length of train ?
- 45 m
- 50 m
- 55 m
- 60 m
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
4. 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
- 25 Seconds
- 28 Seconds
- 30 Seconds
- 35 Seconds
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Relative Speed = 63-3 = 60 Km/hr
= 60 *(5/18) = 50/3 m/sec
Time taken to pass the man will ne
\begin{aligned}
500*\frac{3}{50} = 30 \text{ seconds}
\end{aligned}
5. 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.
- 250 meters
- 260 meters
- 270 meters
- 280 meters
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
