The two trains of lengths 400 m, 600 m respectively, running at same directions. The faster train can cross the slower train in 180 sec, the speed of the slower train is 48 km. then find the speed of the faster train?

Answer: B

Length of the two trains = 600m + 400m 

Speed of the first train = X

Speed of the second train= 48 Kmph 

1000/X - 48 = 180

1000/x - 48 * 5/18 = 180

50 = 9X - 120

X = 68 Kmph

A train speeds past a pole in 15 sec and a platform 100 m long in 25 sec, its length is?

Answer: B

Let the length of the train be x m and its speed be y m/sec.

Then, x/y = 15 => y = x/15

(x + 100)/25 = x/15 => x = 150 m.

A train runs across a post in 15 seconds and across a platform of length 100m in 25 seconds. Determine the length of this train:

Answer: D

Let us assume for this question that the length of train is x metres and it is assumed to be running at the speed of y m/sec.

A pole is assumed as a point object.

=>Time taken by the train to pass the pole= x/y

=>15=x/y

=>y=x/15

Now, the train passes the platform which is 100 m in length in 25 seconds.

=>x+100/y=25

=>x+100/25=y

Equating speed generated from both cases:

x+100/25=x/15

Therefore x = 150 metres.

The length of the bridge, which a train 130 m long and traveling at 45 km/hr can cross in 30 sec is?

Answer: C

Speed = 45 * 5/18 = 25/2 m/sec.

Time = 30 sec

Let the length of bridge be x meters.

Then, (130 + x)/30 = 25/2

x = 245 m.

A train passes a station platform in 36 seconds and a man standing on the platform in 20 seconds. If the speed of the train is 54 km/hr, what is the length of the platform?

Answer: C

Speed = [54 * 5/18] m/sec = 15 m/sec.

Length of the train = (15 * 20) m = 300 m. 

Let the length of the platform be x meters. 

Then, x + 300 / 36 = 15

x + 300 = 540

x = 240 m.
