A train 240 m long passed a pole in 24 seconds . How long will it take to pass a platform 650 m long ?
- A. 65 s
- B. 65 s
- C. 65 s
- D. 65 s
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Given:
Length of the train = 240 m
Time taken to cross the pole =24 s
Length of the platform = 650 m
Concept Used :
Time take into cross the platform = (length of train + length of the platform)/speed of the train
Speed of train = length of train/time taken
Calculation:
Speed of train = 240/24 = 10 m/s
Time taken to cross the platform = (240 + 650)/10 = 890/10
= 89 s
:The time taken to cross the platform is 89 s.
