A car and a train depart in opposite direction from the same location and at the same time if the car travels at 95 km an hour and the train travels at 115 km an hour when will the car and the train be 525 km apart

Respuesta :

2.5 hours

================

We're given the speeds of both the car and the train, and we're asked to determine when they will be 525 km apart.

Let's use the formula:

  • Distance = Speed × Time

Since time is the same for both the car and the train, we can add their speeds to get their relative speed with respect to each other.

The car travels at 95 km/h and the train at 115 km/h, so their combined speed is:

  • 95 km/h + 115 km/h = 210 km/h

Now we need to find the time when they are 525 km apart:

  • Time = Distance / Speed
  • Time = 525 km / 210 km/h
  • Time = 2.5 hours

So, the car and the train will be 525 kilometers apart after 2.5 hours.
