PROBLEMS ON TRAIN

1) A train 150 m long is running at a speed of 68 kmph. How long does it take to pass a man who is running at 8 kmph in the same direction as the train? 
 A.5 sec         B.9 sec             C.12 sec         D.15 sec

2) A train is moving at a speed of 132 km/hr. If the length of the train is 110 metres, how long will it take to cross a railway platform 165 metres long? 
 A.7½ sec         B.10 sec         C.12 ½ sec         D.15 sec

3) A man sitting in a train which is traveling at 50 kmph observes that a goods train, traveling in opposite direction, takes 9 seconds to pass him. If the goods train is 280 m long, find its speed.? 
 A.50 kmph         B.58 kmph         C.62 kmph         D.65 kmph

4) A train 220 m long is running with a speed of 59 kmph. In what time will it pass a man who is running at 7 kmph in the direction opposite to that in which the train is going? 
 A.7 sec         B.8 sec         C.10 sec         D.12 sec

5) A train passes a station platform in 36 seconds and a man standing on the platform in 20 seconds. If the speed of the train is 54 km/hr, what is the length of the platform? 
 A.80 m         B.240 m         C.260 m     D.280 m

6) Two trains are moving in opposite directions at 60 km/hr and 90 km/hr. Their lengths are 1.10 km and 0.9 km respectively. The time taken by the slower train to cross the faster train in seconds is: 
 A.28 sec         B.36 sec         C.48 sec     D.52 sec

7) A 270 metres long train running at the speed of 120 kmph crosses another train running in opposite direction at the speed of 80 kmph in 9 seconds. What is the length of the other train? 
 A.230 m         B.245 m         C.260 m         D.275 m

8) Two trains 140 m and 160 m long run at the speed of 60 km/hr and 40 km/hr respectively in opposite directions on parallel tracks. The time (in seconds) which they take to cross each other, is:
