Correct Answer: 90 km/h
Solution : Speed of train A = $\frac{150}{30}$ = 5 m/sec Let the speed of train B = $x$ m/sec Relative speed = $(5+x)$ m/sec Length of both trains = Relative speed × Time ⇒ $300=(5+x)×10$ ⇒ $300=(50+10x)$ ⇒ $x=\frac{250}{10}$ = $25$ m/sec To convert this into km/h, multiply by $\frac{18}{5}$, ⇒ $25×\frac{18}{5}$ = $90$ km/h Hence, the correct answer is 90 km/h.
