Two trains $A$ and $B$,initially $120\, km$ apart,start moving towards each other on the same track with a velocity of $60\, km/hr$ each. At the moment of start,train $A$ blows a whistle,which reflects off train $B$ and subsequently reflects off train $A$,and so on. If the velocity of sound waves in air is $1200\, km/hr$,what is the total distance travelled by the sound waves before the trains crash (in $km$)?
- A$2400$
- B$1200$
- C$240$
- D$120$

$A$ motor car moving at a speed of $72 \, km/h$ cannot come to a stop in less than $3.0 \, s$,while for a truck,this time interval is $5.0 \, s$. On a highway,the car is behind the truck,both moving at $72 \, km/h$. The truck gives a signal that it is going to stop in an emergency. At what distance should the car be from the truck so that it does not bump into (collide with) the truck? The human response time is $0.5 \, s$.
