Question:A train passes a 50 m long platform in 14 seconds in 14 seconds and a man standing on the platform in 10 seconds.The speed of the train in km∕hr is :
A 24
B 36
C 40
D 45
/139
+ Answer
D
+ ExplanationLet the length of train be x metres.Then
`x/10 = (50 + x)/14 => 14x`
`= 500 + 10x => x = 125.`
:. Speed` = (125/10)` m∕sec.
`= (125/10 xx 18/5)` km∕hr
`= 45` km∕hr.
