A train 250 m long is running at a speed of 68 kmph. How long does it take to pass a man who is running at 8 kmph in the same direction as the train?  Choose the correct choice from the following options: A) 15 sec B) 9 sec C) 12 sec D) 15 sec E) 18 sec

Rationale: "speed of the train relative to man = ( 68 - 8 ) kmph = ( 60 * 5 / 18 ) m / sec = ( 50 / 3 ) m / sec time taken by the train to cross the man = time taken by it to cover 250 m at 50 / 3 m / sec = 250 * 3 / 50 sec = 15 sec answer : a ."
Answer: A
