1 yard = 3 feet
\n" ); document.write( "1 mile = 5280 feet
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "(220 yard) * (3 feet/yard) * (1/5280 mile/feet)
\n" ); document.write( "(220) * (3) * (1/5280)
\n" ); document.write( "0.125 mile
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "the moment the front of the train enters the tunnel:
\n" ); document.write( "distance from back of train to end of tunnel = tunnel length + train length
\n" ); document.write( "2 + 0.125 = 2.125 miles
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "time elapsed between the moment the front of the train enters the tunnel and the moment the end of the train clears the tunnel:
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "s = d/t
\n" ); document.write( "t = d/s
\n" ); document.write( "t = 2.125/40
\n" ); document.write( "t = 0.053125 hour
\n" ); document.write( "t = 0.053125 hour * (60 minutes/hour) = 3.1875 minutes
\n" ); document.write( "t = 3.1875 minutes * (60 seconds/minute) = 191.25 seconds
