Question

Two trains, each 250 m in length are running on parallel lines in opposite directions at speeds of 90 km/h and 60 km/h respectively. In how many seconds will they cross each other completely?

A.

15 sec

B.

18 sec

C.

10 sec

D.

12 sec

Correct option is D

Given:
Length of 1st Train =  Length of 2nd Train = 250 m
Speed of 1st Train = 90 km/hr
Speed of 2nd Train = 60 km/hr
Formula Used:
Distance = Speed × Time
Solution:
Relative Speed = (90 + 60) km/hr = 150 km/hr
Convert into m/sec => (150×518)m/sec(150 × \frac 5{18}) m/sec​​
The distance covered to pass each other = (250 + 250) m = 500 m
So, the time taken to pass each other =500150×518\frac {500} {150 \times \frac{5}{18}} = 12 sec​
