The front of the train enters and exits at 15 mph and at 1 mile it takes 1/15 hour. At the xot the back part is just entering, so it takes another 1/15 hour. Total time is 2/15 hour = 2 *x 60/15 = 8 minutes

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?

Well, isn't that a lovely little puzzle! If the train is 1 mile long and it's traveling at 1 mile per minute, it will take a total of 2 minutes for the train to completely pass through the 1-mile tunnel. Just imagine the train chugging along steadily, enjoying the journey through the tunnel, and coming out the other side with a happy little toot of its whistle.


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.
