Two trains 121m and 99m in length, respectively, are running in opposite directions, one at a speed of 40 km/h and the other at a speed of 32 km/h. In what time will they be completely clear of each other from the moment they meet?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1  i.e. 11sec

As we know

Time = Distance/ speed

Time they will be completely clear of each other from the moment they meet = [(121 + 99)/{(40+32)*5/18}]

= 220/20 = 11 sec
