A train approaches a tunnel AB. Inside AB a cat is sleeping at point C. The train and the cat are at equal distance ‘P’ from A. When the train whistles, the cat runs towards B. If the train catches it exactly at B, and the ratio of the speed of the train to the cat is 7:3, the distance run by the cat is:

A train approaches a 800 m long tunnel AB. Inside the tunnel there is a rabbit when the train whistles, the rabbit runs. If the rabbit moves to the entrance of the tunnel A, the train catches the rabbit exactly at the entrance. If the rabbit moves to the exit B, then the train catches the rabbit at the exit. If the speed of the train is four times the speed of the rabbit, what is the distance of the point at which train whistles fromthe entrance of the tunnel.
