Two trains 85 m and 75 m long are running in same direction with speeds of 62 km/hr and 44 km/hr respectively. In what time will the first train cross the second train ?

Correct Answer: 32 sec

Explanation:

Given that,


1st train speed = 62 km/hr 


2nd train speed  = 44 km/hr


Hence the relative speed of two trains is : 62-44 = 18 km/hr = 18 × 5 18  m/s = 5 m/s.


There fore, the first train crosses the second train i.e (85+75)mts of distance with a speed of 5m/s in, 


 


time d i s tan c e s p e e d   =   85 + 75 5  = 32 sec.
