How much time will a train of length 200 m moving at a speed of 72 kmph take to cross another train of length 300 m, moving at 36 kmph in the same direction ?

Correct Answer: 50 sec

Explanation:

The distance to be covered = Sum of their lengths = 200 + 300 = 500 m.


Relative speed = 72 -36 = 36 kmph = 36 x 5/18 = 10 mps.


Time required = d/s = 500/10 = 50 sec.
