Two trains are running in opposite directions with the same speed. If the length of each train is 120 metres and they cross each other in 12 seconds, then the speed of each train (in km/hr) is: A.12 kmph B.24 kmph C.36 kmph D.48 kmph E.None of these

Description : Two trains are running in opposite directions with the same speed. If the length of each train is 120 metres and they cross each other in 12 seconds, then the speed of each train (in km/hr) is: A.12 kmph B.24 kmph C.36 kmph D.48 kmph E.None of these

Last Answer : Answer – C (36 kmph) Explanation – Let the speed of each train be x m/sec. Then, relative speed of the two trains = 2x m/sec. So, 2x = (120 + 120)/12 ⇔ 2x = 20 ⇔ x = 10. ∴ Speed of each train = 10 m/sec = [10 x 18/5] km/hr = 36 km/hr

Description : Two trains, both 50m long, moving in opposite directions cross each other in 4 seconds. If one is moving thrice as fast the other, then the speed of the faster train is. A) 45km/hr B) 19 km/hr C) 95 km/hr D) 67.5 km/hr

Last Answer : ANSWER:D Explanation:  Let the speed of the slower train be x' m/sec  The speed of the sfaster train = 3x m/s  Relative speed = (x +3x)m/sec  = 4x m/sec  50 + 50 / 4 = 4x  100 / 4 = 4x  100 = 16x  x = 100 ... the faster train = 3 * 25 / 4  = 75 / 4 m/s = (75/4 *18 /5)km/hr  = 67.5 km/hr
