A jogger running at 9 kmph alongside a railway track is 240 metres ahead of the engine of a 120 metre long train running at 45 kmph in the same direction. In how much time will the train pass the jogger ?
30 seconds
32 seconds
34 seconds
36 seconds
Correct Answer :
D. 36 seconds
Speed of train relative to jogger = (45-9) = 36 kmph
= 36*(5/18) = 10 m/sec
Distance to cover = 240 + 120 = 360 metres
Time = Distance/Speed
