Sagot :
If the length of whice is shorter than the length of the train but longer than the length of one train car then the train can pass one car at a time.
Given that two trains are moving towards each other on the same railroad track. From this track there's an offshot peice of railroad- the length of whice is shorter than the length of the train but longer than the length of one train car.
We are required to find how the trains pass each other.
Two cases are there:
For each car in the shorter train
- Train A leaves one of its cars on the offshot.
- Both trains move until train B car move the car from the offshoot the portion of track away from train A.
- Train B moves to allow the cycle to repeat.
We assume that cars can be decoupled at any point in the train,so that any required order of cars can be preserved.We further assume that train can move any one of the A's car in addition to all of them.
The total number of cars lengths that must pass the off shoot is the product of the number of cars in both the trains.So,it does not seems to matter which train makes use of the offshoot.
Hence if the length of whice is shorter than the length of the train but longer than the length of one train car then the train can pass one car at a time.
