    None of these

    Explanation

    Relative speed between the man and the train will be the difference between the 2 speeds Because they are moving in the same direction ∴ relative speed = 15 km/hr Time = 48/3600 hrs Distance = Speed × Time ∴ Length of the train =  15  ×  483600  ×  1000= \;15\; \times \;\frac{{48}}{{3600}}\; \times \;1000 m ∴ Length of the train is 200 m
