A train 125 m long passes a man, running at 5 km/hr in the same direction in which the train is going, in 10 seconds. The speed of the train is:
|
A.
|
45 km/hr
|
B.
|
50 km/hr
|
C.
|
54 km/hr
|
D.
|
55 km/hr
|

Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Speed of the train relative to man =
|
|
125
|
m/sec
|
10
|
= 45 km/hr.
Let the speed of the train be x km/hr. Then, relative speed = (x - 5) km/hr.
x - 5 = 45 x = 50 km/hr.
