1. 

What is the speed of the train whose length is 210 metres?

I. The train crosses another train (Howrah Express/12869) of 300 metres length running in opposite direction in 10 seconds.

II. The train crosses another train (Howrah Express/12869) running in the same direction at the speed of 60 km/hr in 30 seconds.

A. I alone sufficient while II alone not sufficient to answer
B. II alone sufficient while I alone not sufficient to answer
C. Either I or II alone sufficient to answer
D. Both I and II are not sufficient to answer
E. Both I and II are necessary to answer

Answer: Option E

Explanation:

Time taken to cross the train,
running in opposite directions
= (l1 + l2) sec.
(u + v)

10 = (210 + 300)
(u + v)

   u + v = 51.

Time taken to cross the train, running in same direction :

= (l1 + l2) sec.
(u - v)

30 = (210 + 300)
(u - 60 x (5/18))

u = 17 + 50 m/sec.
3

Thus, u and v can be obtained.

Correct answer is (E).
