Very similar problem was solved in the lesson
- A man crossing a bridge and a train coming from behind
in this site.

Surely, the problem is above the standard school level of Physics or Mathematics problems.

So, I assume, that your, dear visitor, level is adequate to the problem's level.

Then the best service that I can provide to you, is to give you the reference to the similar/TWIN problem.

Happy learning and solving (!)

Come again to the forum soon to learn something new (!)
