A train 100 meter long crosses a brigde of length 100meter in 6 seconds.the train will cross the another bridge of length 200meter in ?
Answers
Given :-
▪ A train 100 m long crosses a bridge of length 100 m in 6 seconds.
To Find :-
▪ Time taken by the same train to cross another bridge of 200 m.
Solution :-
While crossing the bridge, the train would also have to cover another distance of its own length in order to cross the bridge. So,
- Total distance = 100 + 100 = 200 m
- Time taken = 6 seconds
We have the distance and time, so let's find the speed of the train,
⇒ Distance = Speed × Time
⇒ 200 = Speed × 6
⇒ Speed = 100/3 m/s
Now, The distance of bridge is given to be 200 m, So the total distance covered by the train will be 200 + 100 = 300 m, and the speed we just found is 100/3 m/s
Time taken by the train can be calculated as,
⇒ Distance = Speed × Time
⇒ 300 = 100/3 × Time
⇒ 900 / 100 = Time
⇒ Time = 9 seconds
Hence, The time taken by the same train to cross the bridge of 200 m is 9 seconds.
Answer:
9 seconds
