Explanation:
When a train overtakes another object such as a motorbike, whose length is negligible compared to the length of the train, then the distance traveled by the train while overtaking the motorbike is the same as the length of the train.
The length of the train = distance traveled by the train while overtaking the motorbike
= relative speed between the train and the motorbike * time taken
In this case, as both the objects i.e., the train and the motorbike are moving in the same direction, the relative speed between them = difference between their respective speeds = 100 - 64 = 36 kmph.
Distance traveled by the train while overtaking the motorbike = 36 kmph * 40 seconds.
The final answer is given in meters and the speed is given in kmph and the time in seconds.
So let us convert the given speed from kmph to m/sec.1 kmph = (5/18) m/sec
Therefore, 36 kmph = 36 * (5 /18) = 10 m/sec.
Relative speed = 10 m/sec. Time taken = 40 seconds.
Therefore, distance traveled = 10 * 40 = 400 meters.
