Answer:

v = 0.416 m/s

Explanation:

Give that,

Distance covered by a train, d = 50 m

Time taken, t = 120 s

We need to find the speed of a train. The formula for speed of an object is equal to the total distance covered divided by total time taken. It can be given by :


v=(d)/(t)\\\\v=(50\ m)/(120\ s)\\\\v=0.416\ m/s

So, the speed of a train is 0.416 m/s.
