Question

A 270 metres long train running at the speed of 120 kmph crosses another train running in opposite direction at the speed of 80 kmph in 9 seconds. What is the length of the other train?

Options:
A .  230m
B .  240m
C .  260m
D .  320m
E .  None of these
Answer: Option A

Relative speed = (120 + 80) km/hr


=\(\left(200\times\frac{5}{18}\right)m/sec\)


=\(\left(\frac{500}{9}\right)m/sec\)


Let the length of the other train be x metres.


Then,\(\frac{x+270}{9}=\frac{500}{9}\)


x + 270 = 500


 x = 230.
