Q:

Train A, travelling at 84 kmph, overtook train B, traveling in the same direction, in 10 seconds. If train B had been traveling at twice its speed, then train A would have taken 22.5 seconds to overtake it. Find the length of train B, given that it is half the length of train A.

A) 180 m B) 100 m
C) 200 m D) 150 m
 
Answer & Explanation Answer:

Explanation:

Let speed of train B be x m/s And length of train B be y m
Then length of train A is 2y m
Speed of train A = 84 × 5/18 = 210/9 m/s = 70/3 m/s
A.T.Q, (2y+y)/10 = 70/3 − x .............(i)
and (2y+y)/ 22.5 = 70/3 − 2x ................(ii)
solving (i) and (ii), y = 50 m
