- Question
- A train 550 metres long is running with a speed of 55 km per hour. In what time will it pass a signal post?
Options- A. 30 sec
- B. 24 sec
- C. 42 sec
- D. 36 sec
- Correct Answer
- 36 sec
ExplanationDistance covered = 550 meter. = 0.55 km
Speed of the train = 55 km/hr
So time taken = 0.55 / 55 =1/100 hr = (60 x 60 )/100 sec = 36 sec - 1. A train 135 metres long is running with a speed of 54 km per hour. In what time will it pass a telegraph post?

Correct Answer: 9 sec
Explanation:
Distance traveled = length of the train = 135 m
Speed of the train = 54 Km/hr = 54 x 5/18 = 15 m/s.
Time taken by train = 135 / 15 sec. = 9 sec.
Correct Answer: 11 sec.
Explanation:
Speed of the train = 36 km/hr = 36 x (5/18) = 10 m/sec
? Required time = 110/10 = 11 sec
Correct Answer: Both the length of the train and the length of the engine
Explanation:
Since the sum of the length of the train and the length of the engine is needed, so both the lengths must be known.
Correct Answer: 50
Explanation:
180 km/hr = 180 x (5/18) = 50 m/sec
Correct Answer: 57.6 km/hr
Explanation:
16 m/sec = 16 x (18/5) = 57.6 km/hr
Correct Answer: 6.6 sec
Explanation:
Time = distance / speed
=110 / {60 x 18/5} = 6.6 sec.
Correct Answer: 54 km/hr.
Explanation:
Required speed = (240 + 120) / 24 = 15 m/sec
= 15 x (18/5) km/hr = 54 km/hr
Correct Answer: 15
Explanation:
Speed of train = distance covered / time.
= (50 + 100) / 10
= 15 m/sec.
Correct Answer: 21 sec
Explanation:
Distance covered = 110 + 240 = 350 m
Speed = 60 km/ph = 60 x (5/18) m/s = 50/3 m/sec.
Time = distance / speed = 350 x 3 / 50 = 21 sec.
Correct Answer: 6 seconds
Explanation:
? Relative speed of the train = 60 + 6 = 66 km/hr
= 66 x 5/18 m/sec = 55/3 m/sec
? Required time = 110 x (3/55) = 6 sec
