\n" ); document.write( "speed of A is 40 and speed of B is 60 miles/h.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "relative velocity = 60 -40 = 20 miles/h.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "As train A passes the station before 15 minutes than B, so we firstly find the \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "distance traveled by A during this time = 40/4 = 10 miles (15 minutes = 1/4 hour) \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "now we find time when B will catch A = distance/speed \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "= 10/20 = 1/2 hour\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "1/2 hour after 2:30 is 3:00\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "so, B will catch the A at 3:00 am.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
