The train with a length of 240 m, moving evenly, passed the bridge in 2 minutes.

The train with a length of 240 m, moving evenly, passed the bridge in 2 minutes. What is the speed of the train if the length of the bridge is 360 m.

To solve this problem, you first need to determine the total distance traveled by the train.

To do this, we summarize the known train length and the length of the bridge.

In this case, we get:

240 + 360 = 600 meters.

We find the speed of the train.

To do this, divide the total distance by the travel time.

The speed will be:

600/2 = 300 m / min.

We convert the speed value to the standard value.

Since in 1 km – 1000 meters, and in 1 hour – 60 minutes, we get:

300 * 60/1000 = 18000/1000 = 18 km / h.

Answer:

Train speed 18 km / h.
