Two trains each of having a speed of 30 ...

Two trains each of having a speed of 30 km/h are headed at each other in opposite direction on the same track. A bird flies off one train to another with a constant speed of 60km/h when they are 60 km apart till before they crash. Find the distance covered by the bird and how many trips the bird can make from one train to the other before they crash.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Speed of each train = 30km/hr
Speed of the bird = 60km/hr
Distance between the two trains = 60 km
These two trains crash in one hour.
The bird flies a distance of 60 km till before the two trains crash.
The bird can make number of trips (infinity) before they crash.

Two trains, each having a speed of 30 km/h, are headed at each other on the same track. A bird flies off one train to another with a constant speed of 60 km/h when they are 60km apart till before they crash. Find the distance covered by the bird and how many trips the bird can make from one train to other before they crash?

Two trains one travelling af 54 kmph and the other at 72 kmph are headed towards one another along a straight track. When they are 1/2 km apart, both drivers simultaneously see the other train and apply their brakes. If each train is decelerated at the rate of 1ms^(2) , will there be collision ?

  • A bird is tossing (flying to and pro) between two cars moving towards each other on a straight road. One car has speed of 54 kmh^(-1) while the other has the speed of 36 kmh^(-1) . The bird starts moving from first can towards the other and is moving with the speed of 36 kmh^(-1) where the two cars were separated by 36 km . The total distance covered by the bird before the cars meet each other is

    A
    14400 m
    B
    1440 m
    C
    244 m
    D
    24400 m

  • Two cars are moving in the direction with a speed of 30 "km h"^(-1) . They are separated from each other by 5 km. Third car moving in the opposite direction meets the two cards after an interval of 4 minutes. What is the speed of the third car?

    A
    `30 "km h"^(-1)`
    B
    `35 "km h"^(-1)`
    C
    `40 "km h"^(-1)`
    D
    `45 "km h"^(-1)`

  • Wind is blowing to east along two parallel railway tracks. Two trains moving with the same speed in opposite direction have the steam track of one double that of the other. The speed of each train is
