A train, travelling at `20 km//hr` is approaching a platform. A bird is sitting on a pole on the platform. When the train is at a distance of 2 km from pole, breakes are applied which produce auniform deceleration in it. At that instant the bird flies towards the train at `60 km//hr` and after touching the nearest point on the train flies back to the pole and then flies towards the train and continues repeating itself. Calculate how much distance will the bird have flown before the train stops?

To solve the problem step by step, we will break it down into manageable parts. ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We have a train traveling at 20 km/hr that starts 2 km away from a pole. When the train is 2 km from the pole, it applies brakes and starts decelerating uniformly. At the same time, a bird, sitting on the pole, starts flying towards the train at a speed of 60 km/hr. After reaching the train, the bird flies back to the pole and continues this back-and-forth motion until the train stops. ### Step 2: Calculate the Deceleration of the Train We need to find the deceleration of the train. We can use the equation of motion: ...

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 leave a railway station at the same time. The first train travels towards west and the second train towards north. The first train travels 5 km/hr faster than the second train. If after two hours they are 50 km apart find the average speed of each train.
