If a train...?

Question

a mile long went through a tunnel and mile long at 60 miles per hour how long wouold it take train to pass through tunnel?

Answer 1

a minute

Answer 2

2 minutes. 60 mph is basically 1 mile per minute so it would take 1 minute to completely enter the tunnel and a minute to completely exit.

Answer 3

For the intire train to pass through the tunnel it would have to drive 2 miles.

2 miles at 60 miles/h is ... 2/60 hours = 2 minutes

Answer 4

Since the back of the train is 1 mile away from the start of the tunnel, then it needs 1 min. to get to the start of the tunnel.

1 more min. to get through the tunnel.

so 2 min. for the train to clear the tunnel.

Answer 5

2 min?

Answer 6

answer is 2 minutes for train to completely pass through tunnel aminute for frionmt to go through and a minute for back to go through

Answer 7

One minute...I think. I'm so bad at math but this seems like it should be some super-obvious thing. One minute. That's my answer. The train would go straight through (the train is a mile long) the tunnel (also a mile long)...??

Answer 8

6 minutes

Answer 9

2 minutes

Answer 10

1 minute front to back

Answer 11

1 minute. 60 miles in an hour. 60 minutes in an hour. So 1 minute for a 1-mile train.

Answer 12

1 min and 1 sec.
