Correct Answer: 60 sec
Solution :
Total distance to be covered = 900 + 900 = 1800 m
Speed of the train = 108 km/h = 108 × $\frac{5}{18}$ = 30 m/s
$\text{Time}=\frac{\text{Length of train + Length of platform}}{{\text{Speed of train}}}$
Time taken to clear the platform = $\frac{1800}{30}$ = 60 sec
Hence, the correct answer is 60 sec.
