Let the second train be at rest so that the so that relative velocity of first train will be 40 plus x X is velocity of second train Sona put in the equation speed into time is equals to distance it will give 40 + X into 3 / 3600 is equals to 75 / 1000 put the all units in same standard so the value of x will be 50
