One Answer on this Question

  1. Length of train = 125Mtrs
    Speed of man = 5Km/Hr
    =(5*1000)/(1*3600)
    =1.4M/s
    Time taken for train to pass = 10s

    Spd = D/T
    Total Distance (Man distance+ Train Length)
    #Distance covered by Man in 10s
    D=Spd*T
    = (1.4M/s*10s)
    = 14Mtrs

    #Train length = 125Mtrs

    Total D = 14Mtrs + 125Mtrs
    = 139Mtrs
    Time taken = 10s

    Sp = D/t
    =139M/10s
    =13.9M/s
