A train 840 m long crosses a pole in 24 seconds. What is the speed of the train in km/h?
A. 126 km/h✓ Correct Answer
B. 9.72 km/h
C. 144 km/h
D. 35 km/h
💡 Solution & Explanation
To pass a pole, the train covers only its own length. Speed = 840 m ÷ 24 s = 35 m/s. To change m/s into km/h, multiply by 18/5: 35 × 18/5 = 126 km/h.
