To save fuel , to avoid air pollution and for good health two persons A and B ride bicycle for a distance of 12 Km to reach their office. As the cycling speed of B is 2 km/h more than that of A, B takes 30 min less than that of A to reach the office. Find the time taken by A and B to reach the office.

Suppose a car starts from a place A and travels at a speed of 40 km/h towards another place B. At the same instance, another car starts from B and travels towards A at a speed of 30 km/h. If the distance between A and B is 100 km, after how much time will the cars meet?

Two discs of moments of inertia I_(1) and I_(2) about their respective axes (normal to the disc and passing through the centre), and rotating with angular speeds ω_(1) and ω_(2) are brought into contact face to face with their axes of rotation coincident. (a) What is the angular speed of the two-disc system? (b) Show that the kinetic energy of the combined system is less than the sum of the initial kinetic energies of the two discs. How do you account for this loss in energy? Take omega_(1)neomega_(2)

A train covered a certain distance at a uniform speed. If the train would have been 10 km/h faster, it would have taken 2 hours less than the scheduled time. And, if the train were slower by 10 km/h , it would have taken 3 hours more than the scheduled time. Find the distance covered by the train.
