Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -We have given a 240 m long train and the time it takes to cross a pole is 24 seconds and we are asked to find the time that the same train will take to cross a 650 m platform. Hence, we got the speed of the train as 10 m/s. From the above calculations, the train will take 89 seconds to cross the platform.

Detailed explanation-2: -Expert-Verified Answer. Answer: Required time is 10.8 seconds.

Detailed explanation-3: -Correct Answer: C) 18 metres/sec. We know that when a train crosses a platform, it covers a distance equal to the sum of its length and that of platform.

Detailed explanation-4: -∴ The speed of the train is 72 km/hr.
