A train which is 100 meters long is traveling at a speed of 90km/hour.
How many seconds will it take for this train to pass completely through a 300 meter tunnel?
:
Find the speed of the train in meter/s sec
= 25 m/sec
:
An additional 100 m will added to the length of the tunnel because of the length of the train.
:
time = dist/speed
= 16 sec to get completely thru the tunnel

***
travel time=distance/speed
distance=100+300=400 m
AMP Parsing Error of [travel time=(90km/hr)/400m*(1000m/km)*(hr/3600sec)=((90*1000)/(400*3600))sec=(.0625) sec]: Invalid function ')=((90*1000)/(400*3600))sec=(.0625)sec': opening bracket expected at /home/ichudov/project_locations/algebra.com/templates/Algebra/Expression.pm line 70. .
