Question

Sharat Saxena Sitting in a train which is running at a speed of 100 km/hr saw a goods train which is running in the opposite direction towards him. The goods train crosses the man in 8 seconds. If the length of the goods train is 300 meters, find its speed?

  • 50
  • 45
  • 40
  • 35
Answer- D

Let the speed of goods train = X km/hr

The man sitting in train is also moving at the speed of train = 100 km/hr

So the speed of goods train relative to man = length of goods train/ time taken

(300/8)m/s (relative speed)

(300/8)*(18/5) = 135km/hr

Now, Relative speed = speed of train or man + speed of goods train

135 = 100 + X

Or X = 135 - 100 = 35 km/hr
