A train on one track moves in the same direction as a second train on the adjacent track as shown in the Figure below. The first train, which is ahead of the second train and moves with a speed of 35.8 m/s, blows a horn whose frequency is 124 Hz. If the frequency heard on the second train is 135 Hz, what is its speed?
