A train speeds past a pole in 15 seconds and a platform 100 m long in 25 seconds. Its length is:

  • A.100 m
  • B.125 m
  • C.130 m
  • D.150 m

Answer: D

The pole crossing covers the train alone, the platform crossing the train plus 100 m.

\[ L = 15v, \qquad L + 100 = 25v \]

Subtracting:

\[ 100 = 10v \quad\Longrightarrow\quad v = 10 \text{ m/s} \]

\[ L = 15 \times 10 = 150 \text{ m} \]
