Two trains of lengths 250 metres and 350 metres will cross each other in _____ seconds when moving in opposite directions with speeds 35 km per hour and 25 km per hour.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 36.

Total length = 250 + 350 = 600 m

Time = 600 ÷ (50/3) = 36 sec
