To pass a pole, the train covers its own length.
Speed = 150 ÷ 10 = 15 m/s.
Choose an option to check your answer.
The train covers its length plus the platform length: 300 meters.
Speed = 300 ÷ 20 = 15 m/s.
Choose an option to check your answer.
Total distance is 100 + 140 = 240 meters.
Relative speed is 10 + 14 = 24 m/s, so time = 10 seconds.
Choose an option to check your answer.
Relative speed is 66 km/h = 55/3 m/s.
Length = speed × time = 55/3 × 18 = 330 meters.

Downstream speed equals still-water speed plus stream speed.
Thus, 12 + 3 = 15 km/h.
Choose an option to check your answer.
Upstream speed equals still-water speed minus stream speed.
Thus, 10 - 2 = 8 km/h.
