The following questions are accompanied by two statements I and II. You have to determine which statements(s) is/are sufficient/ necessary to answer the questions.
What is the speed of train A running in opposite direction of train B?
I. Train B crosses a man standing in 10 sec. with 54 km/hr.
II. Length of train A is twice of length of train B.

A

Statement i alone is sufficient to answer the question but statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the questions.

B

Statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question but statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

C

Both the statements taken together are necessary to answer the questions, but neither of the statements alone is sufficient to answer the question.

D

Neither statement I nor statement II by itself is sufficient to answer the question.

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the speed of train A running in the opposite direction of train B using the provided statements. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Problem**: We need to find the speed of train A, which is running in the opposite direction to train B. 2. **Analyzing Statement I**: - Statement I states that "Train B crosses a man standing in 10 seconds with a speed of 54 km/hr." - To find the length of train B (LB), we can use the formula: \[ \text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}} \] - Rearranging gives: \[ \text{Distance} = \text{Speed} \times \text{Time} \] - Convert the time from seconds to hours: \[ 10 \text{ seconds} = \frac{10}{3600} \text{ hours} = \frac{1}{360} \text{ hours} \] - Now, substituting the values: \[ LB = 54 \text{ km/hr} \times \frac{1}{360} \text{ hr} = \frac{54}{360} \text{ km} = \frac{3}{20} \text{ km} \] 3. **Analyzing Statement II**: - Statement II states that "Length of train A is twice the length of train B." - Therefore, we can express the length of train A (LA) as: \[ LA = 2 \times LB = 2 \times \frac{3}{20} \text{ km} = \frac{6}{20} \text{ km} = \frac{3}{10} \text{ km} \] 4. **Combining the Information**: - From Statement I, we have the speed of train B and its length. - From Statement II, we have the length of train A. - However, we still do not have any information about the speed of train A. 5. **Conclusion**: - Since we do not have sufficient information to determine the speed of train A from either statement alone or even when combined, we conclude that: - **Neither Statement I nor Statement II is sufficient to answer the question.** ### Final Answer: The correct option is D: Neither statement alone is sufficient to answer the question. ---
