Ratio between length of trains A and B is 3 : 5. Speed of train A is 72 km/h and that of train B is 54 km/h and they are running opposite to each other. If train A crosses train B in 16 seconds, then find length of train B.

Problem Statement

Let lengths be 3x and 5x. Speeds: A = 20 m/s, B = 15 m/s. Crossing time = (3x + 5x)/35 = 16 → x = 70. Length of B = 5×70 = 350 m.
