Question

A train leaves thorn junction at 1:25 p.m. and arrives in niles at 3:05 p.m. the train makes two stops along the route for a total of 15 minutes. a second train leaves thorn junction at 4:30 p.m. and heads to niles. this train does not make any stops.

Answer 1

The time taken by the first and the second train is 1 hour 40 minutes and 1 hour 25 minutes. Then the time when the second train at Niles junction is 5:55 p.m.

What is speed?

The distance covered by the particle or the body in an hour is called speed. It is a scalar quantity. It is the ratio of distance to time.

We know that the speed formula

$\rm Speed = \dfrac{Distance}{Time}$

A train leaves Thorn junction at 1:25 p.m. and arrives in Niles at 3:05 p.m. the train makes two stops along the route for a total of 15 minutes.

A second train leaves Thorn junction at 4:30 p.m. and heads to Niles.

This train does not make any stops.

Let the speed of both trains be equal.

Then the time taken by the first train will be

t₁ = 3:05 p.m. - 1:25 p.m.

t₁ = 1 hour 40 minutes

Then the time taken by the second train will be

t₂ = 1:40 - 00:15

t₂ = 1:25 = 1 hour 25 minutes

The time when the second train is at Niles junction will be

→ 4:30 p.m. + 1:25

→ 5:55 p.m.
