A train travelling at a speed of 30 m/s crosses a 600 m long platform in 30 s. Find the length of the train.

A) 120 m
B) 150 m
C) 200 m
D) 300 m

Correct Answer:




D) 300 m

Description for Correct answer:

Let length of the train be x m.

Relative length of the train = (x + 600) m

According to the question,

\( \Large \frac{x+600}{30}=30 => x+600 = 900 \)

Therefore, x = 900 - 600 = 300 m
