Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 850 metres.

Given that

The speed of the train is = 30 m/s

The train crosses a bridge of length 650 m in 50 seconds

Let the length of the train be d

Hence, 30=650+d5030 = \frac{650 + d}{50}

⇒ 1500 = 650 + d

⇒ d = 850 metres

Hence, the length of the train is 850 metres.
