Two trains having lengths of 170 m and 480
Two trains having lengths of 170 m and 480 m are running at speeds of 70 km/h and 80 km/h, respectively, in the same direction. The time taken (in minutes) by the faster train, coming from behind, to completely cross the other train is:
170 m और 480 m लंबाई वाली दो रेलगाड़ियाँ एक ही दिशा में क्रमशः 70km/h और 80 km/h की चाल से गतिमान हैं। पीछे से आ रही तेज चाल वाली रेलगाड़ी द्वारा दूसरी रेलगाड़ी को पूरी तरह से पार करने में कितना समय (मिनटों में) लगेगा?
Detailed Solution & Logic
3.9
Total length = 170 + 480 = 650 m
Relative speed = 80 - 70 = 10 km/h
10 km/h = $ \dfrac{10 \times 1000}{3600} = \dfrac{25}{9} $ m/s
Time = $ \dfrac{650}{25/9} = 234 $ s
234 s = $ \dfrac{234}{60} $ = 3.9 min
Answer: 3.9 minutes
