Two trains are moving in opposite directions at and . The faster train crosses a man sitting in the slower train in 6 seconds. Find the length of the faster train.
- A100 m
- B90 m
- C85 m
- D110 m
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Since the two trains are moving in opposite directions, their relative speed is the sum of their individual speeds:
Converting this speed into meters per second ():
When the faster train crosses a man in the slower train, the distance covered equals the length of the faster train:
