There is no way to answer correctly without knowing where the train is relative to the tunnel and the speed that the train is traveling.

How long does it take for a mile long train to go through a 2 mile long tunnel if it goes 20 mph?
Counting from the moment when the front end of the train enters the tunnel until themoment when the rear end of the train leaves the tunnel, 9 minutes will elapse.
A train 1 mile long moving at a rate of 1 mile per hour enters a tunnel 1 mile long How long does it take the train to pass completely through the tunnel?
2 hours. If the train is one mile long and going 1 mile per hour through a mile long tunnel, in one hour the train would be completely inside the tunnel, since they are the same length and the train is only going one full tunnel length(mile) per hour. It would then take another whole hour for the end of the train to leave the tunnel, bringing the train completely out of the tunnel.
If a train is 1 mile long and is traveling at 1 mile per minute how long will it take the train to go through a tunnel that is 1 mile?
2 minutes
How long will it take a two mile long train going 12mph to get completely through a mile tunnel?
From the time the front of the locomotive enters the tunnel . . .-- The front of the locomotive traverses the 1-mile tunnel, bringing the center of the train to the entrance.-- The center of the train traverses the 1-mile tunnel, bringing the end of the train to the entrance.-- The end of the train traverses the 1-mile tunnel.In all, the train has to travel 3 miles. At the rate of 12 mph, it takes (3/12) = 1/4 hour = 15 minutes.
How long will it take a mile long train going 15mph to get completely through a mile long tunnel?
for minutes and 1 sec.
How long will it take a one mile long train to get through a one mile long tunnel of it is going at 15 miles per hour?
If you are timing from when the train first enters the tunnel until the last car exits the tunnel, then the train would travel 2 miles during this time.So 2 mi / (15 mi/hr) = (2/15) hr * 60 (min/hr) = 8 minutes
How long will it take a mile long train going 60 Miles per hour to get completely through a 1 mile long tunnel?
just as a 1 cm long train takes 2 minutes for the front and the back to completely traverse the tunnel
A train one mile long travels at a rate of one mile per minute through a tunnel that is one mile long?
2 hours
A 1 mile long train statrs through a 1 mile long tunnel.train is traveling 15 miles per hour how long does it take for the train to get completely out the tunnel?
4 minutes
How long will it take a mile long train traveling 15 miles per hour to travel completely through a mile long tunnel?
5 min
How long will it take a train that's 1 mile long to travel completely to a 1 mile long tunnel if it moves at the rate of 1 mile per minute?
2 mintes
How long does it take for a mile long train to go through a mile long tunnel if it goes 30 mph?
4 minutes. The last car on the train is the best way to think about it. That car has to travel the length of the train(1 mile) and also the length of the tunnel( also 1 mile). The total distance would be 2 miles, obviously. So if the train were traveling at 60mph it takes 1 minute to go 1 mile, but since it is going 30mph, it would take two minutes to go 1 mile.
