Q.31 Two trains, which are moving along different tracks in opposite directions towards each other, are put on the same track due to a mistake. Their drivers, on noticing the mistake, start slowing down the trains when the trains are 300 m apart. Graphs given below show their velocities as function of time as the trains slow down.

CONDUCTOR In some materials, the outer electrons of each atom or molecule are only weakly bound to it. These electrons are almost free to move throughout the body of the material and are called free electrons. They are also known as conduction electrons. When such a material is placed in an electric field, the free electrons drift in a direction opposite to the field. Such materials are called conductors. 3 . INSULATOR Another class o
