  1. Two trains are moving on two parallel tracks but in opposite directions. A person sitting in the train moving at the speed of 80 km/hr passes the second train in 18 seconds. If the length of the second train is 1000 m, its speed is
    1. 100 km/hr
    2. 120 km/hr
    3. 140 km/hr
    4. 150 km/hr
Correct Option: B

Let the speed of second train be x m/s.

80 km/h =
80 × 5
m/s
18

According to the question
1000
= 18
x +
80 × 5
18

⇒  1000 = 18x + 400
∴  x =
600
m/s
18

=
600
×
18
km/h = 120 km/h
185
