AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of calculating the time taken by a train to cross a bridge, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the problem We have a train that is 100 meters long, moving at a speed of 72 km/h, and we need to find out how long it takes for the train to completely cross a bridge that is 0.5 km long. ### Step 2: Convert the length of the bridge to meters The length of the bridge is given as 0.5 km. We need to convert this to meters: \[ ...
