220 meter long train is running with a speed of 59 km/hr. In what time will it pass a man who is running at 7 km/hr in the direction opposite to that in which the train is going?

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

Opposite directions, so speeds add: 59+7=6659+7=66 km/hr =66×518=553=66\times\frac{5}{18}=\frac{55}{3} m/s.

Time =22055/3=220×355=12=\frac{220}{55/3}=\frac{220\times3}{55}=12 seconds.
