Q:

Two trains start from same place at same time at right angles to each other. Their speeds are 36km/hr and 48km/hr respectively. After 30 seconds the distance between them will be ?

A) 900 mts B) 300 mts
C) 250 mts D) 500 mts
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 500 mts

Explanation:

Using pythagarous theorem,
distance travelled by first train = 36x5/18x30 = 300m
distance travelled by second train = 48x5/18x30 = 400m
so distance between them =√( 90000 + 160000) = √250000 = 500mts.
