Question

    A train of length ‘x’ m crosses a ‘x + 360’ m

    long platform in 60 seconds. If the train crosses a tree in 18 seconds, then find the value of ‘x’.
    A 270m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 250m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 300m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 210m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E 330m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Speed of train = x/18 m/s So, (x + x + 360)/(x/18) = 60 2x + 360 = 10x/3 x = 270 So, the value of ‘x’ is 270 m.
