Question

Two trains of equal length are running on parallel lines in the same direction at 46 km/hr and 36 km/hr. The faster train passes the slower train in 36 seconds. The length of each train is:

Options:
A .  50 m
B .  72 m
C .  80 m
D .  82 m
Answer: Option A

Let the length of each train be x metres.


Then, distance covered = 2x metres.


Relative speed = (46 - 36) km/hr


= \(\left(10\times\frac{5}{18}\right)m/sec\)


=\(\left(\frac{25}{9}\right)m/sec\)


\(\therefore \frac{2x}{36}= \frac{25}{9}\)


2x = 100


x = 50.
