Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
D
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{Distance travelled in 14 sec}} \cr
& {\text{ = 50 + }}l \cr
& {\text{Distance travelled in 10 sec}} \cr
& {\text{ = }}l \cr
& {\text{So speed of train}} \cr
& {\text{ = }}\frac{{50}}{{14 - 10}}{\text{m/sec}} \cr
& {\text{ = }}\frac{{50}}{4} \times \frac{{18}}{5}{\text{km/hr}} \cr
& {\text{ = 45 km/hr}} \cr} $$
