    Two trains of length 110 m and other 130 m travel on parallel track. If they move in the same direction, the first one faster takes one minute to pass the other completely. If they move in opposite direction they pass each other in 3 s, then the trains is

    A)  41 m/s and 39 m/s        

    B)  32 m/s and 43 m/s

    C)  42 m/s and 38 m/s        

    D)  None of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Let \[{{v}_{1}}\]be the velocity of fast train and Vg be the velocity of slower train. \[\therefore \]      \[\frac{110+130}{{{v}_{1}}-{{v}_{2}}}=60\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[{{v}_{1}}-{{v}_{2}}=4\]                               ?(i) Again,\[\frac{110+130}{{{v}_{1}}+{{v}_{2}}}=3\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[{{v}_{1}}+{{v}_{2}}=80\] On adding Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get \[2{{v}_{1}}=84\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{v}_{1}}=42\,\,m/s\] and put the value of\[{{v}_{1}}\] in Eq. (ii), we get \[{{v}_{2}}=38\,\,m/s.\]
