Kinematics Question 385

A train of 150 m length is going towards north direction at a speed of $ 10m{{s}^{-1}} $ . A parrot flies at a speed of $ 5m{{s}^{-1}} $ towards south direction parallel to the railway track. The time taken by the parrot to cross the train is equal to

Options:

12s

8s

15s

16s

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

The velocity of parrot w.r.t. train is S $ =5-(-10)=15m/sec $

so time taken to cross the train it’s = $ \frac{\text{length of train}}{\text{relative velocity}}=\frac{150}{15}=10\text{ sec} $
