Correct Answer: 25
Solution : Given: Length of train = 200 m and length of bridge = 175 m. Its speed is 54 km/h. To convert km/h into m/s, multiply with $\frac{5}{18}$, we get $54 \times\frac{5}{18}=15$ m/s We know that $\text{time}=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}=\frac{200+175}{15} = \frac{375}{15}=$ 25 seconds Hence, the correct answer is 25.
