Passenger train speed + 50 mph
Freight train speed = 34mph
V(passenger) = V(freight) + 16mph
Vp x Time = 250mi.
Vf x Time = 170mi.
therefore...
a. [Vf + 16] x T = 250
b. Vf x T = 170
Subtract b. from a.
16T = 80
Time = 5 hours
Vp = 250/5 = 50 mph
Vf = 170/5 = 34 mph
they were looking for a faster way to Asia, to trade for spices and etc.
to help the black slaves escape faster
because they can get to asia faster
Becuase of the gin it was much faster to pick to the cotton
it made communication easier, and faster.
Passenger trains are usually faster than freight trains.
they can run about 40 miles an hour for about 2 miles.
A Worm travels faster than a Snail.
lightning travels faster. Light is faster than sound.
The Concorde was one such flight which can make out a mac no of 1..thereby defeating the speed of sound..
Nothing travels faster than light.
The passenger train is going 56 mph, and the freight train is going 48 mph. The time they take to reach 280 and 240, respectively, is 5 hours.
No. The air that travels over the wing moves faster.
Sound travels faster in water than it does in air. It travels even faster in metals.
This depends upon the type of train, its tonnage. and the speed it is travelling. Passenger trains can stop much faster than a freight train. A passenger train at normal speeds of 60mph to 110 mph can be stopped in well under a mile, minimum distance as short as 2500 feet. A heavy freight train traveling at 40mph can take nearly 2 miles to stop.
