Two trains 100 meters and 120 meters long are running in the same direction with speeds of 72 km/hr; in how much   time will the first train cross the second?

Choose the correct answer:
A) 19
B) 44
C) 43
D) 51
Detailed Explanation

Relative speed of the trains = (72 - 54) km/hr = 18 km/hr

                                        = (18 * 5/18) m/sec = 5 m/sec.

Time taken by the trains to cross each other

=Time taken to cover(100 + 120) m at 5 m/sec = (220/5)sec =44 sec.
