A train of length 99m takes 11 seconds to pass completely through a station of length 231m. What is the speed of the train in km/h?

Answer: 108
Explanation

Total distance:

  • Length of the train: 99m
  • Length of the station: 231m
  • Total distance = Length of the train + Length of the station = 99m + 231m = 330m

Total time: 11 seconds

Speed:

  • Speed = Distance / Time
  • Speed = 330m / 11s = 30 m/s

Now, we need to convert m/s to km/h:

  • 1 m/s = 3.6 km/h

So, 30 m/s = 30 * 3.6 = 108 km/h

Therefore, the speed of the train is 108 km/h.
