Question

A jogger running at 9 kmph alongside a railway track in 240 metres ahead of the engine of a 120 metres long train running at 45 kmph in the same direction. In how much time will the train pass the jogger?

Options:
A .  3.6 sec
B .  18 sec
C .  36 sec
D .  72 sec
E .  None of these
Answer: Option C
 -   Speed of train relative to jogger = (45 - 9) km/hr = 36 km/hr
   =     36 x   5   m/sec 18   
  = 10 m/sec.
  Distance to be covered = (240 + 120) m = 360 m
 Time taken =   360 sec = 36 sec. 10
