60 / 61

Q.

A train of length 110 meter is running at a speed of 60 kmph. In what time, it will pass a man who is running at 6 kmph in the direction opposite to that in which the train is going?

View Answer

Correct choice: C

Explanation:

Distance = 110 m Relative speed = 60 + 6 = 66 kmph (Since both the train and the man are in moving in opposite direction) = (66*5/18) m/sec = 55/3 m/sec Time taken to pass the man = (100*3/55) = 6 s
60 / 61
