Answer: Option
Explanation:
| Speed = | ![]() |
45 x | 5 | m/sec |
= | ![]() |
25 | m/sec. |
| 18 | 2 |
Time = 30 sec.
Let the length of bridge be x metres.
| Then, | 130 + x | = | 25 |
| 30 | 2 |
2(130 + x) = 750
x = 245 m.

I have solved this problem in a different way, is this right way to solve?
speed=25/2 m/sec
length of the bridge be x m
total distance = speed * time
x + 130 = 30 * 25/2
x + 130 = 375
x = 245 m
is the above method to solve this problem right?
Please help.
