  • Question
  • Two trains start from same place at same time at right angles to each other. Their speeds are 36km/hr and 48km/hr respectively. After 30 seconds the distance between them will be ?


  • Options
  • A. 900 mts
  • B. 300 mts
  • C. 250 mts
  • D. 500 mts

  • Correct Answer
  • 500 mts 

    Explanation

    Using pythagarous theorem,
    distance travelled by first train = 36x5/18x30 = 300m
    distance travelled by second train = 48x5/18x30 = 400m
    so distance between them =?( 90000 + 160000) = ?250000 = 500mts.
