Question #2 Report Error
A train 250 m long passes a man running at 5 kmph in the same direction in which the train is going, in 10 seconds. Find the speed of the train.
A. 85 kmph
B. 95 kmph
C. 80 kmph
D. 90 kmph

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Relative speed = (250/10) m/s = 25 m/s = 90 kmph. Speed of train = relative speed + man's speed = 90 + 5 = 95 kmph. (Man running same direction, so train overtakes, relative speed = train speed - man speed). So train speed = 25 m/s + 5 kmph? 25 m/s = 90 kmph, man 5 kmph, so train 95 kmph. Yes.
