Solution

The correct option is A
True

Here, the distance to be covered is length of the train + bridge length = 600 + 400 = 1000 m = 1 Km

And time taken = 2 minutes = 2/60 hr = 1/30 hr

$S p e e d i s b a s i c a l l y \frac{D i s t a n c e}{T i m e} = \frac{1}{\frac{1}{30}} = 30 K m / h r$

So, the given statement is true !
