Answers :
1) Answer: D
Length of train = x m
Speed of train = y km/hr
x + 360 = y * 5/18 * 24
3x + 1080 = 20y
x = y * 5/18 * 9.6
18x = 48y
3x = 8y
8y + 1080 = 20y
y = 90 km/hr
2) Answer: B
Length of train = x m
Speed of train = y km/hr
x + 280 = y * 5/18 * 23.2
9x + 2520 = 58y
x = y * 5/18 * 12
3x = 10y
9x + 2520 = 58 * (3x/10)
90x + 25200 = 174x
x = 300 m
3) Answer: D
19x – 16x = 60
x = 20
Length of train A = 20 * 16 = 320 m
Length of train B = 19 * 20 = 380 m
Speed of train A = y km/hr
320 + 380 = (45 + y) * 5/18 * 21
y = 75 km/hr
4) Answer: A
Let L be the length of train and S be the speed in m/s
L = S x 10
Also
L + 440 = S x 32
10S + 440 = 32S
22S = 440
S = 20 m/s
Length of train = 10 x 20 = 200 m
Speed of car = 27 x 5/18 = 7.5 m/s
Time taken by train to cross a car running in same direction as that of train = 200 / (20 – 7.5)
= 16 seconds
Hence answer is option A
5) Answer: D
Let the speed of two trains be X m/s and Y m/s
When two trains crosses each other is opposite direction
Sum of lengths = (X + Y) x 14
When two trains crosses each other in same direction
Sum of lengths = (X – Y) x 182
So, (X + Y) x 14 = (X – Y) x 182
X + Y = 13X – 13Y
X/Y = 7/6
Required % = 1*100/6= 16.66%
6) Answer: C
Speed of train A = 4x
Speed of train B = 5x
Length of train B = 5x * 5/18 * 28.8
= 40x
400 + 40x = (5x – 4x) * 5/18 * (4.4 * 60)
400 + 40x = 220x /3
x = 12
Length of train B = 40 * 12 = 480 m
7) Answer: C
Length of train = x m
Speed of train = y km/hr
x = y * 5/18 * 24
x = 20y/3
x + 520 = y * 5/18 * 50
x + 520 = 125y/9
20y/3 + 520 = 125y/9
y = 72 kmph
8) Answer: B
Speed = Distance/time
24 * 5/18 = (x + 100)/36
=> x = 240 – 100 = 140m = Length of train
Required ratio = 140: 100 = 7: 5
9) Answer: E
Speed of train A = y km/hr
Length of train A = x m
Length of train B = 3x
x = y * 5/18 * 12
3x = 10y
3x + x = (y + 40) * 5/18 * 36
4x = 10y + 400
x = 400
y = 400 * 3/10 = 120
10) Answer: D
Length of train B + 450 = (108 – 54) * 5/18 * 75
Length of train B= 1125 – 450
= 675 m

A.300 m
B.360 m
C.200 m
D.240 m
E.450 m
Answers :
11) Answer: D
Length of train A = x m
Speed of train A = y Kmph
Speed of train B = z Kmph
x + 200 = (y + z) * 5/18 * 18
x + 200 = 5y + 5z
200 + 100 = z * (5/18) * 27
600 = 15z
z = 40 kmph
Speed of man is not given.
12) Answer: B
When train crosses the man,
Speed of the train = 150/20 = 7.5 m/sec
Length of the train + length of the platform = 7.5 x 30 = 225
Length of the platform = 225 – 150 = 75 m
13) Answer: D
Ratio of length = 2:3
Total length of both the train = 5
Length train A = 160
2’s = 160
5’s = 400 meter
Ratio of speed = 3:5
Speed of train A = 3x
Speed of train B = 5x
Relative speed = 8x
Time = distance/speed
20 = 400/8x
x = 5/2 m/sec = 5/2 x 18/5 = 9 km/hr
Speed of train A = 3 x 9 = 27 km/hr
Speed of train B = 5 x 9 = 45 km/hr
14) Answer: E
Length of train A = 4x
Length of train B = 4x *125/100 = 5x
Speed of train B = y
Speed of train A = 2y
4x = (2y + 10) * 5/18 * 14.4
x – 2y = 10
9x = 3y * 5/18 * 25.2
9x = 21y
3x = 7y
(7y/3) – 2y = 10
y = 30
x = 70
Length of train B = 5 * 70 = 350 m
15) Answer: C
x + x – 80 = 90 * 5/18 * 19.2
2x – 80 = 480
x = 280 m
Length of platform = y
280 + y = 60 * 5/18 * 24
y = 120 m
Required time = (200 + 120)/(30 * 5/18) = 38.4 seconds
16) Answer: C
Length of train B = x m
Speed of train A = a Kmph
Speed of train B = b Kmph
200 = a * 5/18 * 8
a = 90 kmph
200 + x = (b + 90) * 5/18 * 12
600 + 3x = (b + 90) * 10
x = b * 5/18 * 18
x = 5b
600 + 3 * (5b) = 10b + 900
5b = 300
b = 60 kmph
17) Answer: C
Length of train = x m
Speed of train = y Kmph
x = y * 5/18 * 10.8
x = 3y
x + 320 = y * 5/18 * 25.2
3y + 320 = 7y
y = 80 kmph
x = 3 * 80 = 240 m
Required time = 240 /((80 – 20) * 5/18) = 14.4 seconds
18) Answer: D
Length of train A = 3x m
Length of train B = 2x m
Speed of train A = a Kmph
Speed of train B = b Kmph
3x + 2x = (b – a) * 5/18 * 60
3x = 10b – 10a
2x = b * 5/18 * 8
9x = 10b
We cannot find the answer.
19) Answer: A
Let the length of the train = x m
Length of the train = Length of the platform
90 X 5/18 = 25m/sec
According to the question,
2x/25 = 60
2x = 25 x 60
X = 750m
20) Answer: A
Length of train = x m
Speed of train = y kmph
x = y * 5/18 * 18
x = 5y
x + 450 = y * 5/18 * 45
5y + 450 = 12.5y
y = 60
x = 60 * 5 = 300 m

Answers :
21) Answer: C
Speed of the train A=72*5/18=20 m/sec
Length of the train A=20*18=360 m
Length of the train B=360 m
(20+x)=(360+360)/20
(20+x)=36
x=16 m/sec
22) Answer: B
Length of train A + 280 = 72 * 5/18 * 38
Length of train A = 480 m
Length of train B = 480 – 80 = 400 m
400 + 100 = Speed of train B * 5/18 * 30
Speed of train B = 60 kmph
Required difference = 72 – 60 = 12 kmph
23) Answer: D
Length of train = x
Speed of train = y
x + 360 = y * 5/18 * 32
9x + 3240 = 80y
x = y * 5/18 * 17.6
9x = 44y
44y + 3240 = 80y
y = 90 kmph
24) Answer: B
Speed of train A = 4x
Speed of train B = 4x * 125/100 = 5x
Length of train A = y
y = 4x * 5/18 * 18
y = 20x
20x + 240 = (5x – 4x) * 5/18 * 120
60x + 240 * 3 = 100x
x = 18
Length of train A = 18 * 20 = 360 m
25) Answer: C
Length of train = x
Speed of train = y
x = y * 5/18 * 20.25
x = 5.625y
x + 150 = y * 5/18 * 27
2x + 300 = 15y
5.625y * 2 + 300 = 15y
y = 80 kmph
26) Answer: A
Length of the train=x
(x+420)=90*5/18*36
x=480 m
Speed of the train is decreased by 16.67%=90*5/6=75 m/s
Required time=(480+240)/75=720/75=9.6 seconds
27) Answer: A
Length of train = (24 + 24 * 2) * 5/18 * 18
= 360 m
Required time = (360 + 140)/(24 * 2) * 5/18
= 37.5 seconds
28) Answer: D
Speed of train A = 3x
Speed of train B = 400/300 * 3x = 4x
Length of train A = y
Length of train B = z
y = 3x * 5/18 * 21.6
y = 18x
y + z = (4x – 3x) * 5/18 * 108
y + z = 30x
z = 30x – 18x = 12x
Required time = 12x/4x * 5/18 = 10.8 seconds
29) Answer: A
Speed of train A=50*4/5=40 kmph
Relative speed=40+50=90 kmph
Time taken by both trains A and B to cross each other=x
160+240=90*5/18*x
400*18/5*1/90=x
x=16 seconds
30) Answer: D
Length of train A=4x
Length of train B=5x
Let speed of train A =y
4x=y*5/18*24
3x=5y
4x+5x=(y+54)*5/18*21.6
3x=(2y+54*2)
3x=2y+108
y=36 kmph
