    Answer : Option B

    Explanation :

    Speed of train relative to man = (60 + 6) km/hr = 66 km/hr.

       = 1-sym-oparen-h1 66 x 5 1-sym-cparen-h1m/sec
    18
       = 1-sym-oparen-h1 55 1-sym-cparen-h1m/sec.
    3
     Time taken to pass the man = 1-sym-oparen-h1 110 x 3 1-sym-cparen-h1sec = 6 sec.
    55
