In one our travels 60 km.
In 60 min travels 60km which is in 1 min travels 1 km and in 60 sec it travels 1000 m.
Then, in 1 sec travels 16.666m.
As the train reaches the pole in 9 sec, so 16.66 * 9 = 150.
In 60 min travels 60km which is in 1 min travels 1 km and in 60 sec it travels 1000 m.
Then, in 1 sec travels 16.666m.
As the train reaches the pole in 9 sec, so 16.66 * 9 = 150.
