Time and Distance Q.6

0. The two trains of respective lengths 160 m and 200 m travel at the speeds of 48 m per second and 52 m per second respectively in opposite direction to each other. What is the total time taken by them to cross each other?

  • Option : A
  • Explanation : Relative speed = 48 + 52 = 100 m/s
    Total distance covered by both the trains = 160 + 200 = 360 m
    Speed = Distance/Time
    ∴ 100 = 360/Time
    ∴ Time = 3.6 seconds
