SSC CPO Tier I - 13th December 2019 - Shift 1 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q110

A train of length 342 m is running at 54 km/hr. In how much time (in seconds) will it cross a bridge of length 438 m?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 52

Length of the train = 342 m

Speed of the train = 54 km/hr = 54 x 1000/3600 = 15 m/s

Length of the bridge = 438 m

Hence,

Total time to cross the bridge = (438 + 342)/15 = 52 seconds
