Question

A 161.5 - m -long train crosses a 758.5 - m -long bridge in 46 seconds. What is the speed of the train? 

A.

72 km/h

B.

78 km/h

C.

75 km/h

D.

80 km/h

Correct option is A

Given:

- Length of train = 161.5 m
- Length of bridge = 758.5 m
- Time taken to cross the bridge = 46 seconds
Formula Used:

- Total distance covered = Length of train + Length of bridge
- Speed = DistanceTime\frac{Distance }{ Time}​​
- Speed (km/h) = Speed (m/s) × 185\frac{18}{5}​​
Solution:

Calculate total distance:
161.5 + 758.5 = 920 meters
Speed in m/s:
92046\frac{920 }{46}​ = 20 m/s
Convert speed to km/h:
20×18520 × \frac{18}{5 }​= 72 km/h
The speed of the train is 72 km/h.
