A train 'B' speeding with 100 kmph crosses another train C, running in the same direction, in 2 mins. If the length of the train B and C be 150m and 250m respectively, what is the speed of the train C (in kmph) ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct option is 2.

Given, speed of train B = 100 kmph

Let speed of train C = x kmph

length of train B = 150 m = 0.15 km

length of train C = 250 m = 0.25 km

time taken = 2 mins = 

time taken =

100 − x = 0.4 × 30

100 − 12 = x

x( speed of the train C) = 88 kmph
