Correct Answer: 8.4
Solution : Given: A 252 m long train is running at a speed of 125 km/h. The speed of the man is 17 km/h. They are going in the same direction. So, their relative speed is (125 – 17) = 108 km/h = 30 m/s So, the train will cross the man in $\frac{252}{30}$ = 8.4 seconds Hence, the correct answer is 8.4.
