Correct Answer: 580 metres
Solution :
Given: The speed of the train is 116 km/hr.
For converting it into m/sec, multiply with $\frac{5}{18}$.
So, 116 km/hr = 116 × $\frac{5}{18}$ m/s = $\frac{580}{18}$ m/s
$\therefore$ The distance covered in 18 seconds = Speed × Time = $\frac{580}{18}×18=580$ metres
Hence, the correct answer is 580 metres.
