Walking home one day, you take a short cut along the train tracks. The tracks cross a narrow bridge over a deep gorge. At the point you are 3/8 of the way across the bridge, you hear the train whistle somewhere behind you. You charge across the bridge, and jump off the track as the train is about to run you down. As it happens, if you had gone the other way, you would have reached safety just before being run over as well. If you can run ten miles per hour, how fast is the train moving? -Riddles

Description : A passenger train 165 m long which is running at a speed of 30km/hr. In what time will it pass a man who is running at a speed of 3 km/hr in the opposite direction. In which the train is moving. A)14 sec B) 17sec C)16sec D)18sec

Last Answer : ANSWER: D Explanation:  Speed of the train = 30 km/hr  Speed of man = 3 km/hr  Length of the train = 165m If direction is given in opposite direction then we add both speed.  That is (30 + 3 )= 33 km/hr ... can easily get the distance of m/s  So it cover 165 m  i.e., 165 * 6 /55 = 18 sec.
