Correct Answer: 85 km/hr
Solution : Given: The first train is running at a speed of 65 km/hr. Let the speed of the second train = $x$ km/hr So, time= $\frac{\text{Length of Train 1+ Length of Train 2}}{\text{Relative speed in opposite direction}}$ $⇒6=\frac{125+125}{(65+x)×\frac{5}{18}}$ $⇒65+x=50×3$ $⇒x= 150 - 65$ $\therefore x= 85$ km/hr Hence, the correct answer is 85 km/hr.
