    5
    What is the speed of the train (in km/hr) ?
    1. 45 km/hr
    2. 60 km/hr
    3. 55 km/hr
    4. 50 km/hr
Correct Option: A

Let speed of train be x kmph
Relative speed = (x + 5) kmph

Length of train =
100
km
1000

=
1
km
10

1
∴  10
x + 5

=
36
5 × 60 × 60

⇒ 
1
=
1
10(x +5)500

⇒  x + 5 = 50
⇒  x = 45 kmph
