C Correct answer
Explanation

When crossing in the same direction, subtract speeds: relative speed = 60 - 6 = 54 km/hr = 54 × 5/18 = 15 m/s. Time = distance/speed = 675/15 = 45 seconds. The train must cover its own length relative to the man. Key distractors: 42 seconds (uses 60 km/hr without subtracting man's speed), 48 seconds (incorrect unit conversion).
