The correct Answer is:
To find the relative velocity of one train with respect to the other when both trains are moving in the same direction at the same speed, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Speeds of the Trains**: - Let the speed of Train A = 80 km/h. - Let the speed of Train B = 80 km/h. 2. **Understand Relative Velocity**: - The relative velocity of one object with respect to another is calculated using the formula: \[ \text{Relative Velocity of A w.r.t. B} = \text{Velocity of A} - \text{Velocity of B} \] 3. **Substitute the Values**: - Using the speeds identified: \[ \text{Relative Velocity of A w.r.t. B} = 80 \text{ km/h} - 80 \text{ km/h} \] 4. **Calculate the Result**: - Performing the subtraction: \[ \text{Relative Velocity of A w.r.t. B} = 0 \text{ km/h} \] 5. **Conclusion**: - The relative velocity of one train with respect to the other is 0 km/h, meaning they are moving at the same speed in the same direction. ### Final Answer: The relative velocity of one train with respect to the other is **0 km/h**. ---
