The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine the speed of a man sitting in a train that is moving at a velocity of 60 km/hour. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Situation**: The train is moving at a speed of 60 km/h. The man is sitting inside the train. 2. **Determine the Speed of the Man with Respect to the Train**: When the man is sitting still in the train, he is not moving relative to the train. Therefore, his speed with respect to the train is 0 km/h. 3. **Conclusion**: The speed of the man with respect to the train is 0 km/h. ### Final Answer: The speed of the man with respect to the train is **0 km/h**.
