A train 495 m long is running at a speed of 63 km/hr. In what time will it pass a bridge 240 m long?
Options:
(A) 39
(B) 40
(C) 41
(D) 42
(E) 43 Stream of consciousness first, then make a decision:
Speed = 63 * 5/18 = 35/2 m/sec
Total distance covered = 495 +240 = 735 m
Required time = 700 * 2/35 = 42 sec
Thus, the answer is (D).
