two trains
\n" ); document.write( "one train 64 kmph
\n" ); document.write( "other train 86 kmph
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "they are going away from each other and co-linear.
\n" ); document.write( "so the effective speed = 64+86 = 150 kmph
\n" ); document.write( "distance = 225 km
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "time = distance/speed = 225/150
\n" ); document.write( "time = 1.5 hours they will be 225 km apart
\n" ); document.write( "...
