The length of train = 0.2 Km
Let the length of train be x Km
Length of bridge = 1.6 Km
Time taken to cross the pole = length of train / velocity of train
Time taken to cross the bridge = length of (train+bridge) / velocity of train
Time taken cross pole / Time taken to cross bridge = x / (x+1.6)
=> 1/9 = x/(x+1.6)
=> x+1.6 = 9x
=> 8x = 1.6
=> x = 0.2 Km
The length of train = 0.2 Km
