A train passes a standing person on a platform in 8 seconds and crosses the platform itself, which is 240 meters long, in 20 seconds. Find the length of the train.
Explanation:
Time taken to cross the platform distance alone = 20 - 8 = 12 seconds. Speed of the train = 240 / 12 = 20 m/s. Length of the train = Speed * Time to pass the person = 20 * 8 = 160 meters.
