(4 meters/second)(40 seconds) = 160 meters.
After the nose of the train reaches the platform, it takes some number of seconds for thenose to reach the far end. At that time, the whole train is lined up with the whole platform.Then after that, it takes the same number of seconds again for the caboose to reach the far end,and the train to completely clear the platform.So the total time that there's some overlap between the train and platform is twice the timethe train takes to move the length of the platform, which is also the length of the train.Distance = (speed) x (time)180 meters = (speed) x (9 seconds)speed = (180/9) = 20 meters per second
109.09 mph
1.166 meters per sec.
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
40 x 4 = 160m
(4 meters/second)(40 seconds) = 160 meters.
After 15 seconds, the train's speed would be 7.5 miles per second. This can be calculated by multiplying the acceleration (0.5 miles per second) by the time (15 seconds).
