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:
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.
