Detailed Solution

Given that a moving train crosses a man standing on a plat form  and a bridge 300 meters long in 10 seconds and 25seconds respectively

The train crosses the platform whose lenght is 300 meters in 25-10=15 sec

Hence, the speed of the train is 30015=20 m/sec

The length of the train is 10·20=200 meters

Time taken by the train to cross the platform 200 meters long is 200+20020=20 sec
