Question:

With a speed of 60 kmph a train crosses a pole in 30 seconds. The length of the train is

 

Options:

1000 m

900 m

750 m

500 m

Correct Answer:

500 m

Explanation:

Speed = \(\frac{ Distance}{ Time}\)

Let the length of the train be x

60 x \(\frac{ 5}{18 }\) =  \(\frac{x}{30}\)

10 x \(\frac{ 5}{3 }\) =  \(\frac{x}{30}\)

\(\frac{50}{3 }\) =  \(\frac{x}{30}\)

x = 500 m
