Question
An express train is moving with a velocity
. Its driver finds another train is moving on the same track in the same direction with velocity
. To escape collision, driver applies a retardation
on the train. The minimum time of escaping collision will be
- None
- Both
The correct answer is: 
As the train are moving in the same direction. So the initial relative speed
and by applying retardation final relative speed becomes zero
