Speed is nothing more than a change in over a specific time. If the train were to travel 50mi in one hour it would be 50mph, or 50mi in half hr would be 100mph.
speed = (change in distance)/(change in time)
a little algebra can go a long way.

Does a bullet train travel faster than a bullet?
bullet trains travel at 96.5 percent the speeed of a bullet No it doesn't. A bullet train does around 190mph normally and can reach 275mph. Depending on calibre, a rifle bullet travels at 1,500-2,000mph. So on average, a bullet train travelling at normal speed travels at between 9.5 and 12.6% of the speed of a rifle bullet.
How do you apply the concept of momentum to compare the mass and velocity of a slow moving train and of a high-speed bullet?
The slow moving train has a much higher mass than the high-speed bullet, but the bullet has a faster velocity than the slow moving train so their momentum is the same.
How does aerodynamics help a bullet train to go fast?
The reduction of airflow across the surface of the train will help facilitate the train's speed by the reduction of the trains resistance to airflow .
What is the principle of bullet train?
The principle that Bullet Train work on is Magnetic levitation and magnetic suspension. . .
How does a bullet train get its power?
A bullet train gets it's power from extremely powerful magnets. The magnets are on the sides of the track, and train.

How do you apply the concept of momentum to compare the mass and velocity of a slow moving train and of a high-speed bullet?
The slow moving train has a much higher mass than the high-speed bullet, but the bullet has a faster velocity than the slow moving train so their momentum is the same.
Why is a bullet train called a bullet train?
'Bullet Train' is not the proper name for these trains.It is a named invented by the English language media for the Japanese 'Shinkansen' high speed trains when they were first introduced. The probably invented the name because they thought 'Shinkansen' was too complicated a word for their readers.Other countries have since built High Speed Lines and High Speed Trains, and the speeds have increased. For example TGV (France), ICE (Germany) etc.because of its high speed and its shape - the original bullet train in Japan had a bullet-shaped pointed nose iirc
