Correct Answer:
C. 201
Explanation:
The train's speed is 8 m/s, calculated by dividing its length of 1352 m by the 169 seconds it takes to pass a pole. To cross the 256 m platform, the train must cover a total distance of 1608 m, which is the sum of the train and platform lengths. Dividing this total distance by the speed of 8 m/s results in a travel time of 201 seconds.
