A train running at 54 km/hr takes 20 sec to cross a platform and 15 sec to pass a man walking in the same direction at a speed of 6 km/hr. Then the length of platform is54 कि.मी./घंटा की चाल से चल रही एक रेलगाड़ी एक प्लेटफ़ॉर्म को पार करने में 20 सेकंड लेती है तथा उसी दिशा में 6 कि.मी./घंटा की चाल से चल रहे एक व्यक्ति को पार करने में 15 सेकंड लेती है। तब प्लेटफ़ॉर्म की लंबाई है

Correct answer: B. 100 meters100 मीटर
Explanation
Train speed = 54 × 5/18 = 15 m/s. Relative speed with respect to the man = (54 − 6) × 5/18 = 48 × 5/18 = 40/3 m/s, so the length of the train = (40/3) × 15 = 200 m. Crossing the platform: 15 × 20 = 300 m = train + platform, so the platform = 300 − 200 = 100 meters.रेलगाड़ी की चाल = 54 × 5/18 = 15 मी./से.। व्यक्ति के सापेक्ष चाल = (54 − 6) × 5/18 = 48 × 5/18 = 40/3 मी./से., अतः रेलगाड़ी की लंबाई = (40/3) × 15 = 200 मी.। प्लेटफ़ॉर्म पार करने में: 15 × 20 = 300 मी. = रेलगाड़ी + प्लेटफ़ॉर्म, अतः प्लेटफ़ॉर्म = 300 − 200 = 100 मीटर।More Mathematical Reasoning and Aptitude questions
