Answer:
here is your answer, buddy.
Ans:- Given: Length of goods train = 250 m
speed = 33km/hr.
Length of mail train = 200 m
and speed = 60km/hr.
By the question, we have
since, both the train move same direction. so, their relative velocity = 60 km/hr - 33km/hr
= 27km/hr
[tex]27 \times \frac{5}{18} = \frac{15}{2} m \: per \: sec \\ [/tex]
.°. total time to that the mail train take to Passover goods train
[tex] = \frac{d}{v} = \frac{250 + 200}{ \frac{15}{2} } = \frac{450 \times 2}{15} \\ = 60sce \: \\ = 1min[/tex]
