Two friends Soham & Shaan decide to get together
So they start driving cars towards each other. They plan to meet halfway. Each is riding at 6 Km/hr. They live 36 kms apart. Shaan has a pet "eagle" and it starts flying the instant they start traveling. The eagle flies back and forth at 18 Km/hr between them until the two meet.

A tempo, while travelling 70 kmph, uses 40% more petrol than it uses while travelling at 50 kmph for travelling a certain distance. Using one litre of petrol, it can travel 19.6 km at 50 kmph. How far can the tempo travel (in kms) on 10 litre of petrol at a speed of 70 kmph?
A car has 4 tyres and 1 spare tyre. Each tyre can travel a maximum distance of 20000 miles before wearing off. What is the maximum distance the car can travel before you are forced to buy a new tyre? You are allowed to change tyres (using the spare tyre) unlimited number of times.
A spider and a fly are diametrically opposite vertices of a web in the shape of a regular hexagon. The fly is stuck and cannot move. On the other hand, the spider can walk freely along the edges of the hexagon. Each time the spider reaches a vertex, it randomly chooses between two adjacent edges with equal probability and proceeds to walk along that edge. On average, how many edge lengths will the spider walk before getting to fly?
