Q:

A train moves past a telegraph post and a bridge 264 m long in 8 seconds and 20 seconds respectively. What is the speed of the train ?

A) 69.5 km/hr	B) 70 km/hr
C) 79 km/hr	D) 79.2 km/hr

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 79.2 km/hr

Explanation:

Let the length of the train be x metres and its speed by y m/sec.

Then, x/y = 8 => x = 8y

Now, (x+264)/20 = y
$\Rightarrow$ 8y + 264 = 20y
$\Rightarrow$ y = 22.
$\therefore$ Speed = 22 m/sec = (22*18/5) km/hr = 79.2 km/hr.
