Two trains of length 120 m and 280 m are running towards each other on parallel lines at 42 kmph and 30 kmph respectively. In what time will they be clear of each other from the moment they meet?
Answer: D
Trains in the same direction close at the difference of their speeds; in opposite directions, at the sum.
\[ 1 \text{ kmph} = \frac{5}{18} \text{ m/s} \]
\[ \text{relative speed} = 42 + 30 = 72 \text{ kmph} = 20 \text{ m/s} \]
\[ t = \frac{120 + 280}{20} = \frac{400}{20} = 20 \text{ sec} \]
