Correct Option: C
Trains are running in opposite direction.
∴ Relative speed of the two trains
= 90 + 60 = 150 km per hr.
Distance travelled in 4 | 1 | seconds |
2 |
with speed of 150 km per hr.
Let the length of the first train be x metres.
Then the length of the second train be | x | metres |
2 |
⇒ 3x = 375
⇒ x = 125 metres
Hence, the length of the first
train = 125 metres
Speed of the first train = 60 km per hr.
Time taken by the first train to cross the tunnel = 4 minutes
= 240 + | 75 | sec. = | 480 + 75 |
2 | 2 |
Speed of first train = | 50 | m per sec. |
3 |
∴ Distance covered by it in | 555 | sec. |
2 |
Hence, length of tunnel
= 4625 – 125 = 4500 metres
= 4.5 km
