Question 1021160: A train which Is 600 ft long enters a 1 mi long tunnel.
If the train is travelling 200 mph how long before the end of the train leaves the tunnel? Answer by Cromlix(4381) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hi there,
600 feet = 0.113636 miles
Total distance to clear
= 1.113636
Speed = 200mph
Time = Distance/Speed
Time = 1.113636/200
Time = 20 seconds
Hope this helps :-)
