A 600-metre-long train is running at the speed of 45 km/h. How much time will the train take to completely cross a stationary pole?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 48 s.
Distance = length of train = 600 m
Speed = 45 km/h
Distance = Speed × Time
Time =
Speed(in m/s) = Speed(in km/h)
According to the given question,
Speed of train(in m/s) = 45 = = 12.5 m/s
Now, time = = 48 s
Hence the required time is 48 s.
