Two trains 110 meters and 90 meters long are running in opposite directions at speeds of 36 km/h and 54 km/h respectively. In what time will they pass each other completely? MCQ with Answer and Explanation

Two trains 110 meters and 90 meters long are running in opposite directions at speeds of 36 km/h and 54 km/h respectively. In what time will they pass each other completely?
A. 12 seconds
B. 10 seconds
C. 8 seconds
D. 6 seconds
Answer: Option C
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
Total distance = 110 + 90 = 200 meters. Relative speed in opposite directions = 36 + 54 = 90 km/h = 90 * (5/18) = 25 m/s. Time taken = 200 / 25 = 8 seconds.
