Question

    Two trains of lengths 120 m and 150 m are moving in

    opposite directions at speeds of 45 km/h and 30 km/h, respectively. How much time will they take to cross each other completely?
    A 8 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 10 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 12 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 13 seconds Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Relative speed = (45 + 30) km/h = 75 km/h = 75 × 1000 / 3600 m/s = 125/6 m/s Total distance = 120 m + 150 m = 270 m Time = 270 / (125/6) = 12.96 ≈ 13 seconds. Correct Option: d
