Question:

A train 280 m long, running with a speed of 63 km/hr will pass an electric pole in :

Options:

20 sec

16 sec

15 sec

18 sec

Correct Answer:

16 sec

Explanation:

Speed = \(\frac{ Distance}{ Time}\)

63 x \(\frac{ 5}{ 18}\) =  \(\frac{ 280}{ Time}\)

\(\frac{ 315}{ 18}\) = \(\frac{ 280}{ Time}\)

Time = \(\frac{\text{280 Χ 18} }{ 315}\)

Time = 16 sec
