A car travels along a straight road at 65 km/h when it begins to pass a train traveling on a track parallel to the road.
The train is moving at 35 km/h in the same direction as the car.
If the train is 150 m long, how many seconds will it take for the car to pass the train?
:
Change 150 to .15 km, find the time in hrs and convert to seconds (time 3600)
time = dist/speed
t =
t =
t = .005 * 3600 = 18 seconds
