A 400 m long train takes 36 s to cross a man walking at 20 km/h in the direction opposite to that of the train. What is the speed of the train ?
-
- 20 km/h
- 30 km/h
- 15 km/h
- 11 km/h
Correct Option: A
Relative speed of train = 400/36 m/s = 400/36 x (18/5) = 40 km/h
Relative speed of train = Speed of train + Speed of man
⇒ 40 = Speed of train + 20
∴ Speed of train = 40 - 20 = 20 km/h
