AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of finding the velocities of trains A and B, we can break down the information given and apply the concepts of relative velocity. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We have two trains, A and B, each of length 200 meters. Train A overtakes train B in 30 seconds and crosses train B in 15 seconds. We need to find the velocities of both trains. ### Step 2: Set Up the Variables Let: - Velocity of train A = \( x \) m/s ...
