Correct Answer: 45


Solution : Given: The distance of the train is 150 m and its time taken is 12 seconds.
We know that, $\text{Speed}=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}$
To convert m/s into km/h multiply by $\frac{18}{5}$ and we get,
So, the speed of the train = $\frac{150}{12}\times \frac{18}{5}= 45$ km/h
Hence, the correct answer is 45 km/h.
