1.  A goods train runs at the speed of 72 kmph and crosses a 250 m long platform in 26 seconds. What is the length of the goods train?

A. 230 m
B. 240 m
C. 260 m
D. 270 m

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Speed = 72 x 5 m/sec = 20 m/sec.
18

Time = 26 sec.

Let the length of the train be x metres.

Then, x + 250 = 20
26

x + 250 = 520

x = 270.
