Two trains are on the same line, 100 miles
apart, heading towards each other, each
traveling at 20 mph. A fly that can travel at
40mph leaves one engine flying towards the
other. Upon reaching the other engine, it
instantaneously turns around, and heads
back to the other engine. This is repeated
until the two trains crash and the fly is
annihilated at the same time.
Question: How far does the fly travel
before it is "splatted"?
