if a train leaving chicago is traveling at a speed of 55 mph and a train leaving chicago is traveling 60mph, when will they collide? Both trains left at 5:00pm, and the 2 cities are 712 miles apart.

ok........now is one of the trains carrying passengers ?

 

[blindside683]

the one leaving chicago has 127, the pne from new york has 7 passengers and 241 tons of coal...but thats not important..

 

[missy2shoes]

it is to me lol

 

[blindside683]

ok, well have you thought of an answer

 

[missy2shoes]

See here's the thing....Aussies are more familiar with kilometres

 

[blindside683]

it was a trick question, both trainsare heading south, so the will never collide.

 

[missy2shoes]

but what if the track turns??? lol

 

[blindside683]

it wont matter, because they could both turn

 

[missy2shoes]

ok....say there were 2 tracks leaving chicago......and then the tracks crossed over at some point.......BAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM potential collision haha

 

[blindside683]
