See Actually I was once travelling in the countryside where I saw a beauty of nature. There was a huge apple tree in the side of the road and a crow and a cuckoo bird had made a nest on it. There is a truck approaching with speed 5 m/s and is loaded with Grapes. Both Crow and cuckoo bird leave the nest and start flying towards the truck at speed 10 m/s each. They pick a grape each and return to their nests and again go for another grape. The velocity is always constant = 10 m/s If the time lapsed between picking of grapes is negligible - Then Calculate the Distance flown by Crow and cuckoo each. At t=0 the distance between tree and truck is 200 m

300 m by crow - 300 m by Cuckoo 400 m by crow - zero by Cuckoo 550 m by crow - zero by Cuckoo 500 m by crow - 500 m by Cuckoo

its easy - actually time taken by truck to reach tree is 200/5 seconds = 40 during this time bird is always in motion since time lapse in picking grapes tends towards zero. so distance flown is simply 10 multiplied by time = 40 seconds so distance is 400 m and cuckoo part was simply GK - since cuckoo bird never builds a nest. so basically this question enhanced ur GK - and ur creativity.
