t = train length ... T = tunnel length
t = 90 mi/h * 5280 ft/mi * 4 s / 3600 s/hr
the train travels its length in 4 s
... it takes one minute (60 s) for the front of the train to traverse the tunnel
T = t (60 s / 4 s)
t = 90 mi/h * 5280 ft/mi * 4 s / 3600 s/hr
the train travels its length in 4 s
... it takes one minute (60 s) for the front of the train to traverse the tunnel
T = t (60 s / 4 s)
