    Speed & Distance

    Two trains of equal length are running on parallel lines in the same direction at 46 km/hr and 36 km/hr. The faster train passes the slower train in 36 seconds. The length of each train is:

    ক)
    50 m
    খ)
    72 m
    গ)
    80 m
    ঘ)
    82 m

    Explanation

    Let the length of each train be x metres. Then, distance covered = 2x metres. Relative speed = (46 - 36) km/hr = 10 x (5/18) m/sec. = (25/9) m/sec. => 2x/36 = 25/9 =>2x = 100 So, x = 50.
