A train running at the speed of 60 km/hr crosses a pole in 9 seconds. What is the length of the train?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Speed = | ![]() |
60 x | 5 | ![]() |
= | ![]() |
50 | ![]() |
18 | 3 |
Length of the train = (Speed x Time).

Let length of the train be 'x' metres...
Speed of the train = 60km/hr(given)
Time = 9seconds(given)
refer the formulas for train problems...
As the time is given in seconds and answers are given in metre(train length) we are in need to convert from km/hr to m/s
km/hr = 1000m/(60min*60sec) = 5/18 m/s
Length of the train(distance covered a post)= speed * time
= (60*(5/18))*9
= (50/3)*9
= 150 m
For the train related formulas,check the READ MORE in Left corner(Important formulas)...

@Contactjerin
Feet to Meter conversion: 1 feet = 0.3048 meter
Meter to Feet conversion: 1 meter = 3.28083 feet
This is what I mentioned already in this discussion.
You can easily find the answer for your question that is:
3.28083 feet = 1 meter.
Feet to Meter conversion: 1 feet = 0.3048 meter
Meter to Feet conversion: 1 meter = 3.28083 feet
This is what I mentioned already in this discussion.
You can easily find the answer for your question that is:
3.28083 feet = 1 meter.

From the question we can predict speed= distance/hour
((by speed=60 km/hr)note the km/hr)
As to calculate for 9 sec I am converting the whole things to seconds
(i.e.)speed=60000/3600=16.666666(remember this is for one second)
therefore for 9 seconds
16.666666*9= 150
((by speed=60 km/hr)note the km/hr)
