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.
A average freight train going 50 mph (80 km/h) will take up to 1.5 miles. That is how long a freight train takes to stop if it collides with a car.
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.
It depends how much money you have .
