2 trains - 30 kmph each, headed towards each other on same track.A bird ( v = 60 kmph ) flies off the front of 1 train when they r 60 m apart & heads directly towards other train & so forth. Total distance the bird travels ???
Hi Mohit,
The Answer is ,
Let the distance between the trains be x km Initially.
The relative speed of trains is 30 + 30 = 60 kmph.
Thus distance x is reducing with speed 60 kmph.
Now t = total time taken when the trains strike each other
Thus t = x / 60 hrs. where x is in kms.
Now the distance travelled by bird is S = speed of bird and time the bird is alive.
Thus , S = 60 * t
= 60 * x / 60
= x kms.
If Initially the trains are 60 m apart then total distance the bird will travel is 0.06 kms
of if Initially the trains are 60 km apart then total distance the bird wiil travle is 60 km.
