Jai and Veeru are engine drivers of Rajdhani (210m long) and Shatabdi express (280 m long) respectively. Speed of Rajdhani is 30 m/s and that of shatabdi is 40 m/s. The trains are running on two parallel tracks but in opposite direction. Jai throws water from his water gun at a speed of 2.5 m/s aiming at Veeru when they are closest (just crossing each other). However the water could only wet Basanti sitting at the end of the train. Find the distance between the parallel tracks (assume width of trains equal to width of tracks)
Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
