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 .  2 sec
Answer: Option C

Speed of train relative to jogger = (45 - 9) km/hr = 36 km/hr. 


   =\(\left(36\times\frac{5}{18}\right)m/sec\)


   = 10 m/sec. 


Distance to be covered = (240 + 120) m = 360 m. 


thairfor Time taken = \(\left(\frac{360}{10}\right)sec = 36 sec. \)
