Question


Two guns were fired from the same place
at an interval of 10 minutes and 30 seconds, but a person in the train
approaching the place hears the second shot 10 minutes after the first.
The speed of the trian (in km/hr), supposing that speed travels at 330 metres per second, is:


Options:
A .  50.4
B .  111.80
C .  19.88
D .  59.4
Answer: Option D

Let the speed of the train be x m/sec. Then,
Distance travelled by the train in 10 min. = Distance travelled by sound in 30 sec.
∴ Speed of the train = 16.5 m/sec = [16.5*18/5] km/hr = 59.4 km/hr
