A high-speed train clears a stationary post column signal mast in 8 seconds and clears across the full station platform itself, which measures 240 meters long, in 20 seconds. Find the speed index of the train in km/h. MCQ with Answer and Explanation
A high-speed train clears a stationary post column signal mast in 8 seconds and clears across the full station platform itself, which measures 240 meters long, in 20 seconds. Find the speed index of the train in km/h.
A. 84 km/h
B. 64 km/h
C. 80 km/h
D. 72 km/h
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Time taken to cross the platform span alone = 20 - 8 = 12 seconds. Speed of train = 240 / 12 = 20 m/s. In km/h index = 20 * (18/5) = 72 km/h.
The speed of a train is 20% more than the speed of a car. Both start from point A at the same time and reach point B, 120 km away, at the same time. On the way, however, the train lost about 10 minutes while stopping at the stations. What is the speed of the car?
Two trains 140 meters and 160 meters long are running in opposite directions at speeds of 50 km/h and 58 km/h respectively. In what time will they cross each other?
