    A train moving with uniform speed crosses a man standing at platform in 2 seconds and a bridge of length 250 m in 7 seconds.The length of train is :

    A. 75 m
    B. 85 m
    C. 100 m
    D. 107 m

    Answer: Option C
    Explanation:
    Let the length of train = x m
    Speed of train = x/2 = ( x +250)/7
    7x = 2 (x + 250)
    7x = 2 x + 500
    5x = 500
    x = 100 m
    Hence, length of train =x m = 100 m
