A 300 meter long train crosses a platform in 33 seconds while it crosses a signal pole in 18 seconds. What is the length of the platform?
Pick one.
A) 250 B) 266 C) 230 D) 288 E) 271
Speed = [300 / 18] m/sec = 50/3 m/sec.   Let the length of the platform be x meters.   Then, x + 300 / 33 = 50/3   3(x + 300) = 1650 è x = 250m.   250nswer: 250
