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:

A

200 km

B

400 km

C

300 km

D

600 km

Two train are moving in a straight line in the same direction with a speed of 80 km/h. The relative velocity of one trains w.r.t. each other is

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

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:
