Speeds of train P and Q is 65 m/s and 50 m/s. Train P and Q are running in same direction. They cross each other in 50 seconds. What is total length (in metres) of trains P and Q?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Given:

Speeds: P = 65 m/s, Q = 50 m/s

Time = 50 seconds

According to the formula:

Relative Speed ​​= 65 − 50

Total Length = Relative Speed ​​× Time

Relative Speed ​​= 15 m/s

Total Length = 15 × 50 = 750 meters
