Submitted by : AG KANNAN distance=time*speed
when two trains are going in the same direction
speed of the two trains=300/30=10m/s ------>(1)
when two trains are going in the opposite direction
speed of the two trains=(200-100)/20=5m/s------>(2)
from the eqn 1&2
a+b=10
a-b=5 ans is a=7.5m/s,b=2.5m/s

RE: Two trains of lengths 200m and 100m if moving in ... l1 200;
spped of l1 be v1;
l2 100;
speed of l2 be v2;
200/v1+100/v2 30;
200/v1-100/v2 20;
hence
v1 8 and v2 20

200+100/(a+b) 10; a+b 30;
therefore a 22.5 b 7.5

RE: Two trains of lengths 200m and 100m if moving in ... time taken to cross to trains when moving in same directionis
so u have to add two sppeeds(200+100)/(a-b) 30in
opposite directions so u have to subtract the two speds(200+100)/(a+b) 20a-b 10a+b 15a 12.5 and b 7.5
guys don t confuse thi s is correct one..........

300 (x+y)30
in opp direction
300 (x-y)20
on solving for x and y v get

RE: Two trains of lengths 200m and 100m if moving in ... d1 200
d2 100
if they r in same direction then relative speed is (200-100)/30 10/3 3.33
if they r in opposite direction then relative speed is (200+100)/20 300/20 15

RE: Two trains of lengths 200m and 100m if moving in ... Let Length of train 1 L1 200m Length of train 2 L2 100m
Let Speed of train 1 V1 ? Speed of train 2 V2 ?
Dont confuse with the total crossing length. Its always (200+100 300m). You can easily visualize it supposing one of the trains is not moving.
Now
Relative velocity of train 1 w.r.t train 2 when moving in same direction V1-V2 300/30 10 m/s
Relative velocity of train 1 w.r.t. train 2 when moving in opposite direction V1+V2 300/20 15 m/s
Solving for V1 & V2
we get V1 25/2 m/s 45Km/hr & V2 5/2 m/s 9Km/hr
