You can put this solution on YOUR website! Two trains of length 55 metres and 65 metres travel in opposite directions with speed 70 km/hour and 50 km/hour respectively.
Find the time taken for them to completely cross one another.
:
The relative speed between the two trains: 70 + 50 = 120 km/hr
Change 120 km/hr to meters/sec = 33 meters per sec
:
Find the no. of seconds to travel 55 + 65 = 120 meters = 3.6 seconds
