Two trains are headed towaads each other...

Two trains are headed towaads each other on the same straight rrach, each vaving a speed of ` 30 km h^(-1)`. A bird that can fly at ` 60 km h^(-1)` flies off one train when they are ` 60 km` apart and leads firectly form the otjer train, On reaching the other train, tg flies back to the first train and so on.
(a) How many trips can the bird make from one trin to the other train befre they meet ? (b) What is the total distance the bird travels ?

Two trains, each with a speed of 50 kmph are headed towards each other on the same trake. A bird that can fly at the rate of 100kmph flies off one train when they are 100km apart and heads directly to the other train. On reaching the other train it flies back to the first train and so forth. (a) How many trips can the bird make from one train to the other before they crash ? (b) How is the total distance the bird travels ?

Two trains, each travelling with a speed of 37.5kmh^(-1) are approaching each other on the same straingh track. A bird that can fly at 60 kmph flies off from one train when they are 90 km apart and heads directly for the other train. On reaching the other train, it flies back to the first and so on. total distance covered by the bird before trains collide is

Two trains, each having a speed of 30 km/h, are headed at each other on the same track. A bird that can fly 60 km/h flies off the front of on train when they are 60km apart and heads directly to the other train. On reaching the train, the bird flies back to the first train. What is the total distance the bird travels before the train collide?

Train A and B are moving towards each other on the same track with velocities 40 km/hr and 20 km/hr respectivley. A sparrow which can fly at 30 km/hr flies off from train A when the train are 30 km apart. The sparrow directly moves towards the train 'B' and on reaching there flies back to 'A' and so on. Distance travelled by the sparrow till the two trains will hit is:

Two trains, each having a speed of 30 km//h , are headed towards each other

Two trains are approaching each other on the same track with velocity 100 km/h and 50 km/h. When they are at a distance of 300 km from each other, a bird starts flying from train 1 towards train 2. When the bird reaches train 2, it instantly reverses its direction and flies again towards train 1. This process continues till the bird is trapped between the trains when they collide. If the bird always travels at a constant speed 200 km/h, the total distance the bird flies is:

Two trains A and B , 100km apart are travelling towards each other on different tracks with same starting speed of 50km//h . The train A accelerates at 20km//h^(2) and the train B retards at the rate 20km//h^(2) . The distance covered by the train A when they cross each other is
