A train 120 metres long passes an electric pole in 12 seconds and another train of same length traveling in opposite direction in 8 seconds what is the speed of the second train?

Completely ignore the first train.
The second train passes the pole in 8sec.
In this 8 seconds the train drove 120 meters.
So the train has a speed of 15meters per second (120/8=15).
Answer: 15 (meters / second) = 54 km/h

If a car is traveling north at 100 kilometers per hour and another car is traveling in the opposite direction at the same speed Are their velocities the same?
No. Velocity includes a directional component. If the two were of the same mass and collided head-on, their velocities (being in the reverse directions) would cancel out.
You are in a car going 70 km h and another car passes you going in the opposite direction at 70 km h Do both cars have the same velocity Explain?
You already answered the question. Both cars are traveling at 70kmph, which is the same velocity.
You are in a car going 70 kmh and another car passes you going in the opposite direction at 70 kmh. do both cars have the same velocity?
No. Velocity is a vector, so it has both a magnitude and a direction. If the velocity of your car was heading in the positive direction, then the other car is moving in the negative direction. The velocities are NOT the same!
What total distance will be covered by traveling at 50 mph for 75 minutes?
Mandy is driving north of 50km/he. If his sister is driving another car at a velocity of -25km/hr, in what direction is she driving?
A car is traveling at a velocity of 70 km hr west to have the same velocity another car would have to travel at?
Another car would have to travel at 70 km/hr west.To have the same velocity, it must have the same speed toward the same direction.
What is meant by negative vector?
It is a vector that has the opposite direction to the reference positive direction. (A vector is one point in space relative to another.) Negative vector is the opposite direction
Adding a force acting in one direction to a force in another direction is the same as adding a?
as adding a ".... in the opposite direction.
If one component of a vector A is zero along the direction of another vector B then in what direction the two vectors will be?
opposite direction.
How can the electrical potential energy of a charged particle in an electric field be increased?
THIS IS A GOOD QUESTION IF WE PLACE THE CHARGE IN THE ELECTRIC FIELD AT A DISTANCE R FROM THE ELECTRIC FIELD AND PLACED THE ANOTHER POINT CHARGE AT A ANOTHER DISTANCE r WHERE R IS GRATER THAN THE SMALL R THEN THE ELECTRIC FIELD AT r IS MORE THAN THE ELECTRIC FIELD AT POINT R.ORWE CAN SAY THAT IF THE CHARGE IS PLACED IN THE DIRECTION OF ELECTRIC FIELD THAN ITS ELECTROSTATIC POTENTIAL ENERGY WILL DECREASE OR WHEN IN DIRECTION OPPOSITE THAN VICEVERSA

What is an antivortex?
An antivortex is a vortex which rotates in an opposite direction to another with which it is paired.

What are periodic winds?
Periodic winds are Certain winds blow in one direction in one season and in the opposite direction in another. They are known as Periodic Winds.

What does a solid yellow line mean in Texas?
A solid yellow line means two things. The colour indicates that traffic on the other side of the line travels in the opposite direction as you're traveling. The solid line indicated that you may not cross into that lane to overtake another vehicle.
Can momentum have a negative velocity?
No, momentum can not have a negative velocity. Velocity is the rate of motion of a body from one position to another position in a particular direction. Bodies traveling in opposite directions may appear to have a negative velocity in relationship to each other but any amount of velocity is positive.
Why is the gravity of the earth 0 in its center?
Because any matter that pulls you to one side will be compensated by another piece of matter that pulls you in the opposite direction.Because any matter that pulls you to one side will be compensated by another piece of matter that pulls you in the opposite direction.Because any matter that pulls you to one side will be compensated by another piece of matter that pulls you in the opposite direction.Because any matter that pulls you to one side will be compensated by another piece of matter that pulls you in the opposite direction.
