A 270 metres long train running at the speed of 120 kmph crosses another train running in opposite direction at the speed of 80 kmph in 9 seconds. What is the length of the other train ?

Correct Answer: 230 m

Explanation:

Relative speed = (120 + 80) km/hr



=(200*5/18)m/s = (500/9)m/s


 


Let the length of the other train be x metres.


 


Then, x+270/9 = 500/9 


 


=>  x + 270 = 500


 


=>  x = 230.
