  1. Two trains of length 70 m and 80 m are running at speed of 68 km/hr and 40 km/hr respectively on parallel tracks in opposite directions. In how many seconds will they pass each other ?
    1. 10 sec
    2. 8 sec
    3. 5 sec
    4. 3 sec
Correct Option: C

Relative speed
= (68 + 40) kmph = 108 kmph

=
108 × 5
m/s or 30 m/s
18

∴  Required time =
Sum of the lengths of both trains
Relative Speed

=
70 + 80
second = 5 seconds
30
