A car moving at 95 km/h passes a 1.00-km-long train traveling in the same direction on a track that is parallel to the road. If the speed of the train is 75 km/h ,how long does it take the car to pass the train, and how far will the car have traveled in this time? What are the results if the car and train are instead traveling in opposite directions?
