Question

A goods train runs at the speed of 72 kmph and crosses a 250 m long platform in 26 seconds. What is the length of the goods train?

Options:
A .  230m
B .  240m
C .  260m
D .  270m
Answer: Option D

Speed =\(\left(72\times\frac{5}{18}\right)m/sec=20m/sec\)


Time = 26 sec.


Let the length of the train be x metres.


Then, \(\frac{x+250}{26} = 20\)


x + 250 = 520


 x = 270.
