A) 22 sec B) 32 sec
C) 42 sec D) 52 sec
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 32 sec

2nd train speed  = 44 km/hr

Hence the relative speed of two trains is : 62-44 = 18 km/hr = 18×518 m/s = 5 m/s.

There fore, the first train crosses the second train i.e (85+75)mts of distance with a speed of 5m/s in, 

 

timedistancespeed = 85+755 = 32 sec.
