  1. Two trains 150 m and 120 m long respectively moving from opposite directions cross each other in 10 secs. If the speed of the second train is 43.2 km/hr, then the speed of the first train is
    1. 54 km/hr
    2. 50 km/hr
    3. 52 km/hr
    4. 51 km/hr
Correct Option: A

Speed of second train
= 43.2 kmph

=
43.2 × 5
m/sec.
18

or 12 m/sec.Let the speed of first train be x m per second, then
150 + 120
= 10
x + 12

⇒  27 = + x 12
⇒  x = 15 m/s
= 15 ×
18
kmph = 54 kmph
