Distance apart =168 miles\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "speed of train I = 32 mph
\n" ); document.write( "speed of train II = 80 mph\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "They are moving towards each other.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so they are aproaching each other with speed 80+32 = 112 mph\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "t= d/r\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "t= 168/112\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "= 1.5 hours
\n" ); document.write( "
