A train passes a 110-meter long bridge in 12 seconds and a standard sign post in 7 seconds. Find the length of the train.
A. 175 meters
B. 154 meters
C. 140 meters
D. 160 meters
Answer: Option B
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Time taken to cross the bridge alone = 12 - 7 = 5 seconds. Speed of train = 110 / 5 = 22 m/s. Length of train = Speed * Time to cross sign post = 22 * 7 = 154 meters.
Explanation:
Let the time duration be t hours. Difference in distance = 12t - 9t = 3t = 15 km => t = 5 hours. Actual distance traveled = 9 * 5 = 45 km.
