Top 160 Most Asked Train Questions :

51. The train crosses the 200 m long bridge in 21 seconds and the same train crosses the electric pole in 9 seconds. If the same train crosses another train running in opposite direction at 50 kmph in 18 seconds, then find the length of second train.

ट्रेन 200 मीटर लंबे पुल को 21 सेकंड में पार करती है और वही ट्रेन 9 सेकंड में बिजली के खंबे को पार करती है। यदि वही ट्रेन 18 सेकंड में 50 किमी प्रति घंटे की गति से विपरीत दिशा में चलने वाली दूसरी ट्रेन को पार करती है, तो दूसरी ट्रेन की लंबाई ज्ञात कीजिए?

A. 360 m
B. 400 m
C. 450 m
D. 480 m
E. None of these

Option “B” is correct.

Let Length of train A = x

And Speed of train A = y

Length of train B = z

(x + 200)=y * 5/18 * 21

x + 200 = 35y/6

6x + 1200 = 35y

6x – 35y + 1200 = 0————-(1)

x = y * 5/18 * 9 

2x = 5y ———-(2)

6x = 15y

(2) in (1)

15y – 35y + 1200 = 0

20y = 1200

y = 60 kmph

2x = 60 * 5

x = 150 m

150 + z = (110) * 5/18 * 18

150 + z = 550

z = 400 m

52. If the length of the train A is 121 m moving with the speed of 40 km/hr crosses another train B which is moving in opposite direction to that of the train A at the speed of 32 km/hr in 11 seconds. Then find the length of the second train.

यदि ट्रेन A की लंबाई 121 मीटर है और वह 40 किमी / घंटा की गति के साथ चलती है, और दूसरी ट्रेन B को 11 सेकंड में पार कर जाती है, जो ट्रेन A के विपरीत दिशा में 32 किमी / घंटा की गति से चलती है। फिर दूसरी ट्रेन की लंबाई ज्ञात कीजिए।

A. 102 m
B. 80 m
C. 100 m
D. 99 m
E. None of these

Option “D” is correct.

Length of train B = L m

Length of train A = 121 m

Speed of train A = 40 km/hr

Speed of train B = 32 km/hr

Relative speed = 40 + 32 = 72x 5/18 = 20 m/s

Time = Distance / speed

11 = (121+ L)/20

L = 220 – 121 = 99 m

53. A train X is 380 m long and travels at a speed of 32 km/hr. Another train Y is 180 m long and travels at 40 km/hr. The two trains pass each other in opposite directions. How long will it take time to pass each other?

एक ट्रेन X 380 मीटर लंबी है और 32 किमी / घंटा की गति से यात्रा करती है। एक अन्य ट्रेन Y 180 मीटर लंबी है और 40 किमी / घंटा की गति से दूरी तय करती है। दो ट्रेनें विपरीत दिशाओं में एक दूसरे को पार करती हैं। एक -दूसरे को पास करने में कितना समय लगेगा?

A. 24 seconds
B. 32 seconds
C. 44 seconds
D. 28 seconds
E. None of these

Option “D” is correct.

They will be moving at a relative speed of = 32 + 40 = 72 km/hr.

Or in m/sec = 72 × 5/18 = 20 m/sec.

Now, the distance will be = 380 + 180 = 560 m.

Thus, the time taken will be = 560/20 = 28 seconds.

Hence, the required answer is = 28 seconds.

54. A train of length 180m takes 36 seconds to cross an another train 320m long in opposite direction. If the speed of first train is x km/hr and speed of second train is (x+10)km/hr, then find the value of x?

180 मीटर लंबी एक ट्रेन विपरीत दिशा में 320 मीटर लंबी दूसरी ट्रेन को पार करने में 36 सेकंड का समय लेती है। यदि पहली ट्रेन की गति x किमी/घंटा है और दूसरी ट्रेन की गति (x+10) किमी/घंटा है, तो x का मान ज्ञात कीजिए?

A. 25
B. 20
C. 27
D. 28
E. None of these

Option “B” is correct.

Relative speed = x + x +10 = (2x +10) * 5/18 m/sec

Sum of length of train = 180+320 = 500m

Time = Sum of length of train/Relative speed

500=(2x+10)*(5/18)*36

x = 20

55. A train can travel 480 km in 6 hours. The ratio of speed of Bus to Bike is 7:11. If the speed of Bus is 7/8th of the speed of train. Find the difference between the speed of bike and speed of train?

एक ट्रेन 6 घंटे में 480 किमी की यात्रा कर सकती है। बस से बाइक की गति का अनुपात 7:11 है। यदि बस की गति, ट्रेन की गति की 7/8 है। बाइक की गति और ट्रेन की गति के बीच का अंतर ज्ञात कीजिए?

A. 15 kmph
B. 40 kmph
C. 30 kmph
D. 50 kmph
E. None of these

Option “C” is correct.

Speed of train = 480/6 = 80 kmph

Speed of Bus = 7/8 * 80 = 70 kmph

Speed of bike = (11/7)*70 = 110 kmph

Required difference = 110 – 80 = 30 kmph

56. Find the time taken by a train to cover a distance of 624km, if the speed of the train is 20% more than the speed of bus and speed of bus is 30% more than the speed of a school van which covers 240km in 12 hours.

624 किमी की दूरी तय करने के लिए ट्रेन द्वारा लिया गया समय ज्ञात करें, यदि ट्रेन की गति, बस की गति से 20% अधिक है और बस की गति, स्कूल वैन की गति से 30% अधिक है जो 12 घंटे में 240 किमी तय करती है।

A. 10 hours
B. 14 hours
C. 20 hours
D. 25 hours
E. None of these

Option “C” is correct.

Speed of school van = 240/12 = 20kmph

Speed of bus = 20 * 1.30 = 26kmph

Speed of train = 26 * 1.20 = 31.2 kmph

Time taken = 624/31.2 = 20 hours

57. Train A crosses train B running in the same direction in 96 seconds. Train B crosses a car running in the opposite direction at the speed of 30 kmph in 18 seconds. If train A crosses a tower in 14 seconds and train A is faster than train B, then find the speed of train B?

ट्रेन A, समान दिशा में चल रही ट्रेन B को 96 सेकंड में पार करती है। ट्रेन B, 30 किमी प्रति घंटे की गति से विपरीत दिशा में चल रही कार को 18 सेकंड में पार करती है। यदि ट्रेन A एक टावर को 14 सेकंड में पार करती है और ट्रेन A, ट्रेन B से तेज है, तो ट्रेन B की गति ज्ञात कीजिए?

A. 30 kmph
B. 60 kmph
C. 45 kmph
D. 72 kmph
E. Cannot be determined

Option “E” is correct.

Length of train A = x

Speed of train A = y

Speed of train B = b

Length of train B = a

(x + a) = (y – b) * 5/18 * 96

3x + 3a = 80y – 80b

a = (b + 30) * 5/18 * 18

a = 5b + 150

x = y * 5/18 * 14

9x = 35y

35y + 9a = 240y – 240b

We cannot find the answer.

58. Train A crosses train B running opposite direction at the speed of 90 kmph in 12 seconds and the speed of train A is 72 kmph. Train A crosses a car running same direction at the speed of 90 kmph in 18 seconds. What is the time taken by train B crosses a man standing in a platform?

ट्रेन A, 90 किमी प्रति घंटे की गति से विपरीत दिशा में दौड़ने वाली ट्रेन B को 12 सेकंड में पार करती है और ट्रेन A की गति 72 किमी प्रति घंटा है। ट्रेन A, 90 किमी प्रति घंटे की गति से समान दिशा में दौड़ने वाली एक कार को 18 सेकंड में पार करती है। ट्रेन B के द्वारा एक प्लेटफॉर्म पर खड़े एक व्यक्ति को पार करने में लिया गया समय क्या है?

A. 12 seconds
B. 18 seconds
C. 24 seconds
D. 36 seconds
E. 15 seconds

Option “B” is correct.

Length of train A = (90 – 72) * 5/18 * 18 = 90 m

90 + Length of train B = (90 + 72) * 5/18 * 12

Length of train B = 450 m

Required time = 450/(90 * 5/18) = 18 seconds

59. The speed of a car is two-third of the speed of a train. Train covers 360 km in 3 hours. How much distance will the car cover in 5hours?

एक कार की गति, एक ट्रेन की गति का दो-तिहाई है। ट्रेन 3 घंटे में 360 किमी की दूरी तय करती है। कार 5 घंटे में कितनी दूरी तय करेगी?

A. 400 km
B. 360 km
C. 420 km
D. 340 km
E. None of these

Option “A” is correct.

Speed of train = 360/3 = 120 km/hr

Speed of car = 120 × (2/3) = 80 km/hr

Required distance = 80 × 5 = 400 km

60. A train crosses the x m long platform in 36 seconds and crosses the man standing in a platform in 12 seconds. If the train crosses the man running in opposite direction at the speed of 20 kmph in 9 seconds, find the value of x?

एक ट्रेन x मीटर लंबे प्लेटफॉर्म को 36 सेकंड में पार करती है और प्लेटफॉर्म पर खड़े व्यक्ति को 12 सेकंड में पार करती है। यदि ट्रेन विपरीत दिशा में 20 किमी प्रति घंटे की गति से दौड़ रहे व्यक्ति को 9 सेकंड में पार करती है, तो x का मान ज्ञात कीजिए?

A. 200
B. 280
C. 350
D. 400
E. None of these

Option “B” is correct.

Length of the train = z

Speed of train= y

z = y * 5/18 * 12

3z = 10y

z = (y + 20) * 5/18 * 9

2z = 5y + 100

4z = 3z + 200

z = 200 m

y = 3 * 200/10 = 60 kmph

200 + x = 60 * 5/18 * 36

x = 600 – 200

x = 400 m
