Two bullet trains of equal lengths take 8 seconds and 15 seconds respectively to cross a telegraph post. If the length of each bullet train be 120 metres, in what time (in seconds) will they cross each other travelling in opposite direction? Choose the most appropriate option.
A) 13 sec .	B) 10.4 sec .	C) 12 sec .	D) 17 sec .	E) 19 sec .

Rationale: speed of the first bullet train = 120 / 8 m / sec = 15 m / sec . speed of the second bullet train = 120 / 15 m / sec = 8 m / sec . relative speed = ( 15 + 8 ) = 23 m / sec . required time = ( 120 + 120 ) / 23 sec = 10.4 sec . b
Answer: B
