Detailed Solution: Question 1


Hence, Option D is correct.

MCQ: Problems Based on Trains - 2 - Question 2

Train A crosses a pole in 20 seconds and crosses Train B of the same length running in the opposite direction in 25 seconds. If the speed of Train A is 25 m/s, what is the speed of Train B?

Detailed Solution: Question 2

Length of Train A = 20 × 25 = 500 meters
Combined length = 500 × 2 = 1000 meters

So the answer = 40 – 25 = 15 m/s
Hence, Option A is correct.

MCQ: Problems Based on Trains - 2 - Question 3

A train takes 126 seconds to cross 1.25 km long bridge. If the speed of the train is decreased by 33.33%, how much time will it take to cross the same bridge?

Speed → Old : New = 3 : 2
Time → Old : New = 2 : 3

Hence, Option B is correct.

MCQ: Problems Based on Trains - 2 - Question 4

If a train running at 40 m/s crosses a platform half of its length in 30 seconds, what is the length of the platform?

500 – 200 = 300
800 – 500 = 300
On increasing the length by 300 meters time is increased by 15 seconds.
So the answer = 55 + 15 = 70 seconds
Hence, Option C is correct.

MCQ: Problems Based on Trains - 2 - Question 11
