Solution

The correct option is C 10

Speed of train A ( $v_{a}$ ) $= 54 k m / h r = 15 m / s$
Speed of monkey with respect to train = $v_{m a}$

Let the speed of monkey with respect to ground = $v_{m}$

Speed of monkey with respect to train 'A', $v_{m a}$ = $v_{m} - v_{a}$

$v_{m}$ $= 15 - 5 = 10 m / s$
