Given:

Rajdhani Express train of length 108 m is running at the speed of 128 km/h.

Another train of length 148 m is standing at the station

Concept used:

Distance = speed × time 

Calculation: 

Total distance is , 108 + 148 = 256 m

⇒ Speed = 128 km/h = 128 × 5/18 m/s = 320/9 m/s

So, time = distance /speed

⇒ 256/ (320/9) = (256 × 9)/320 = 7.2 sec

∴ The correct option is 4
