A locomotive 180 meters long crosses a modern bridge in 30 seconds. If it takes 12 seconds to pass a single post light, find the length of the bridge.
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Speed of train = 180 / 12 = 15 m/s. Total distance in 30 seconds = 15 * 30 = 450 meters. Length of bridge = 450 - 180 = 270 meters.
Speed of train = 180 / 12 = 15 m/s. Total distance in 30 seconds = 15 * 30 = 450 meters. Length of bridge = 450 - 180 = 270 meters.

A train 200 meters long covers a telegraph post in 10 seconds. Find the time it takes to cover a bridge of 300 meters.
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Speed of train = 200 / 10 = 20 m/s. Total distance to cross bridge = 200 + 300 = 500 meters. Time = 500 / 20 = 25 seconds.
Speed of train = 200 / 10 = 20 m/s. Total distance to cross bridge = 200 + 300 = 500 meters. Time = 500 / 20 = 25 seconds.
