Give a quick stream of consciousness before answering the following question. Two trains are moving at 90 kmph and 70 kmph in opposite directions. Their lengths are 150 m and 100 m respectively. The time they will take to pass each other completely is?
Options:
(A) 42/5 sec
(B) 45/8 sec
(C) 40/6 sec
(D) 37/6 sec
(E) 42/4 sec
70 + 90 = 150 * 5/18 = 400/9 mps
D = 150 + 100 = 250 m
T = 250 * 9/400 = 45/8 sec
The answer: (B).
