GIVEN :
Length of train = 350m
Length of platform = 550m
Total length = 350 + 550 = 900m
Time taken = 60seconds
Speed = ?
We know that,
Speed = Distance/time taken
= 900/60
= 15m/s
To convert into km/h we should multiply with 18/5
= 15 × 18/5
= 3 × 18
= 54km/h
Therefore, speed of train is 54kmph.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :-
Length of train = 350 m
Length of platform = 550 m
Time taken in crossing = 60 sec
To Calculate :-
Speed of the train = ??
Formula to be used :-
Speed = Distance/time taken
Solution :-
Total length to cross = 350 + 550 = 900m
Speed = distance/time
= 900/60
= 15 m/s
Hence, the speed of the train is 15 m/s.
In Kilo meters
= 15 m/s
= 15 × 18/5
= 54 km/h
Hence, the speed of the train is 54 km/h.
