a 300 m long train crosses a platform in 48 sec while it crosses a signal pole in 18 sec . what is the length of the platform ?
"speed = 300 / 18 = 50 / 3 m / sec . let the length of the platform be x meters . then , ( x + 300 ) / 489 = 50 / 3 3 x + 900 = 2400 = > x = 500 m . answer : a"
subtract(multiply(speed(300, 18), 48), 300)
