Question

A 50 meter long train Passes over a 250meter long bridge at a velocity of 60 km/hr . How long Will it take to pass completely over the bridge??

Answer 1

Length of the train = 50 m

Length of the bridge = 250 m

Total distance to be covered by the train in order to pass the bridge = 50 + 250 = 300 m

Velocity of the train = 60 km/hr = 16.67 m/s

Let the time taken by the train be t.

$t = \frac{distance}{speed}$

$t = \frac{300}{16.67}$

t = 18 seconds

Hence, the time taken by the train to pass the bridge is 18 seconds.

Answer 2

Answer: Length of the train = 50 m

Length of the bridge = 250 m

Total distance to be covered by the train in order to pass the bridge = 50 + 250 = 300 m

Velocity of the train = 60 km/hr = 16.67 m/s

Let the time taken by the train be t.

t = 18 seconds

Hence, the time taken by the train to pass the bridge is 18 seconds.
