An engine moves at the speed of 60 kmph without any coaches attached to it.Speed of the train reduces at the rate that varies directly as the square root of the number of coaches attached.When 9 coaches are attached speed decreases to 48 kmph.What will be the speed of train when 25 coaches are attached.
Select the correct option:
A) 35 B) 28 C) 40 D) 44 E) 42

Rationale: 1 . no . of coaches = 9 sqr root = 3 speed decreases by 12 12 = k * 3 k = 4 no . of coaches = 25 swr root = 5 decrease = 5 * 4 = 20 new speed = 60 - 20 = 40 c
Answer: C
