The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of how long it takes for a train moving at 90 km/hr to cover a distance of 2275 meters, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert the speed from km/hr to m/s The speed of the train is given as 90 km/hr. To convert this to meters per second (m/s), we use the conversion factor where 1 km = 1000 meters and 1 hour = 3600 seconds. \[ \text{Speed in m/s} = \text{Speed in km/hr} \times \frac{1000 \text{ m}}{3600 \text{ s}} \] Substituting the given speed: \[ \text{Speed in m/s} = 90 \times \frac{1000}{3600} \] ### Step 2: Simplify the conversion Now we simplify the fraction: \[ \text{Speed in m/s} = 90 \times \frac{1000}{3600} = 90 \times \frac{1}{3.6} = 25 \text{ m/s} \] ### Step 3: Use the formula for time We know that: \[ \text{Distance} = \text{Speed} \times \text{Time} \] We can rearrange this formula to find the time: \[ \text{Time} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}} \] ### Step 4: Substitute the values Now we substitute the distance (2275 meters) and the speed (25 m/s) into the formula: \[ \text{Time} = \frac{2275 \text{ m}}{25 \text{ m/s}} \] ### Step 5: Calculate the time Now we perform the division: \[ \text{Time} = 91 \text{ seconds} \] ### Final Answer The train will take **91 seconds** to cover a distance of 2275 meters. ---
