It takes a train 60 seconds to completely drive through a bridge of 1260 m, and 90 seconds to completely drive through a tunnel of 2010 m. how fast does the train travel? what is the length of the train?

The length of train is 120 meters

The speed of train is 25 meter per second

Solution:

The speed is given by formula:

Given that,

It takes a train 60 seconds to completely drive through a bridge of 1260 m

And 90 seconds to completely drive through a tunnel of 2010 m

Let the length of the train be "x"

The total distance travelled by the train across the bridge is given by:

total distance = x + 1260 + x = 2x + 1260

[ here we use x + x to represent that train completely drives through bridge ]

The time taken is given as 60 seconds

Therefore, the speed is given as:

The total distance travelled by the train through the tunnel is given by:

total distance = x + 2010 + x = 2x + 2010

The time taken is given as 90 seconds

Therefore, the speed is given as:

The speed of the train was the same in both cases.

Equate both speeds

Thus length of train is 120 meters

Find the speed of train:

Thus speed of train is 25 meter per second

step-by-step explanation:

f(x) is the value of the function. b is the value of the function when x equals zero or the y-coordinate of the point where the line crosses the y-axis in the coordinate plane.

hope this !
