A plane travel 100 kph faster than a train the plane covers 500 km in the same time that train coves 300 km find the speed of each one?

Let the speed of the train be x km/hr, so the speed of the plane is (100 + x) km/hr.
Since the time (t in hours) of the traveling is the same for both of them, we have:
(100 + x)t = 500
xt = 300 where
t = 500/(100 + x)
t = 300/x so that
500/(100 + x) = 300/x (cross multiply)
500x = 300(100 + x)
500x = 30,000 + 300x (subtract 300x to both sides)
200x = 30,000 (divide by 200 to both sides)
x = 150
Thus, the speed of the train is 150 km/hr, and the plane speed is 250 km/hr.

If the same model plane travel 3 times faster than the same model airplane what is the kinetic energy of the faster plane?
The kinetic energy of an object varies as the square of its velocity (Kinetic energy = mv2/2). So a plane with the same mass travelling at 3 times the velocity will have 9 times the kinetic energy.
If you run on a plane are you moving faster than the plane?
If the frame of reference is the ground, and if you are running forward, you are indeed moving faster than the plane. If you are running toward the rear of the plane, you are moving slower than the plane.
How long does it take to travel 210 miles by plane?
The answer depends on how fast the plane is flying.

Is a boat faster than a plane?
Generally speaking aeroplanes are much faster than boats. The main factor being the medium through which they travel. There are certain specially built vessels that can travel faster than some aeroplanes but for sheer speed air travel will always be faster.
Does a horse travel faster than a passenger plane?
Of course not! A plane can travel at hundreds of miles an hour. The fastest horse only reaches 55 miles per hour for a very short distance. I mean, really! If horses were faster than planes, than why did we invent planes to travel long distances?

It's Typically faster than by Boat or Car however it is usally cheaper than a plane.
Which insect can fly faster than a jet plane?
No insect can fly faster than a jet plane. The fastest flying insects can travel at 60-70 mph, about the speed cars travel on a highway. By contrast a commercial jet usually flies at over 500 mph.
