2. 100 m.
Problems on Trains:
1. 2 trains are running in opposite directions at the same speed. If the length of each train is 150 m and they cross each other in 15 seconds, then the speed of each train is:
Solution:
2x = 150/15
x = 5 m/s
Speed = 5*18/5
= 18 km/hr.
2. 2 trains of equal lengths 10 and 5 seconds respectively to cross a post. If the length of each train be 100m, in what time will they cross each other travelling in opposite direction?
Solution:
Speed of the train 1 = 100/10 = 10 m/s.
Speed of the train 2 = 100/5 = 20 m/s.
Time = (100+100)/(20+10)
= 200/30
= 6.7 seconds.
