A train travelling with a speed of 60 kmph catches another train travelling in the same direction and then leaves it 120 m behind in 18 seconds. The speed of the second train is

  • 126kmph
  • 235 kmph
  • 336 kmph
  • 463 kmph
Answer:- 1
Explanation:-

Solution:
Let speed of the 2nd train is S m/sec.
And,
60 kmph = (60*5)/18 = 50/3 m/sec.
As trains are traveling in same distance, Then Relative distance,
(50/3) - S = 120/18;
Or, (50-3S)/3 = 20/3;
Or, 50-3S = 20;
S = 10 m/sec.
Or, Speed of the 2nd train = 10 * 18/5 = 36 kmph.
