Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Step 1: Convert speed to metres per second: 63 km/h = 63 × 5/18 = 17.5 m/s
Step 2: Find distance covered in 30 seconds: Distance = speed × time = 17.5 × 30 = 525 m
Step 3: Subtract train length to get bridge length: Bridge length = 525 − 170 = 355 m
Answer: 355 m
