Q:

A train 125 m long passes a man, running at 4 km/hr in the same direction in which the train is going, in 10 seconds. The speed of the train is:

A) 49 kmph B) 50 kmph
C) 51 kmph D) 52 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 49 kmph

Explanation:

Speed of the train relative to man

= (125/10) m/sec = (25/2) m/sec.

[(25/2) x (18/5)] km/hr = 45 km/hr.

Let the speed of the train be 'x' km/hr.

Then, relative speed = (x - 4) km/hr.

x - 4 = 45 => x = 49 km/hr.

A) 426 B) 428
