A train running at the speed of 60 km/hr crosses a pole in 9 seconds. What is the length of the train?

  • A.120 metres
  • B.180 metres
  • C.324 metres
  • D.150 metres

Answer: D

\[ 1 \text{ km/hr} = \frac{5}{18} \text{ m/s} \]

\[ 60 \text{ km/hr} = 60 \times \frac{5}{18} = \frac{50}{3} \text{ m/s} \]

A pole has no length, so the train covers only itself:

\[ L = \frac{50}{3} \times 9 = 150 \text{ metres} \]
