Answer: 100 miles
Step-by-step explanation: How much time does the bird spend in flight? If you represent the problem in terms of the amount of time the bird is flying, then a solution is fairly straightforward. The two trains are 50 miles apart, and are approaching each other at a relative speed of 50 mph (25 + 25), so it will take one hour for them to meet. If the bird spends one hour flying at 100 mph, then it will traverse 100 miles before the trains meet.

- <em>You would need fewer the unit</em><em><u> </u></em><u>kilometer (km) </u><em>to measure a tree.</em>
Explanation:
In the internet you can find that the greatest height of a tree is aobut 115 meters.
Thus, you would never expect to find a tree measuring kilometers or miles.
If you used kilometers as unit, the measure of the tallest tree woul be about 0.115 km (115 meter divided by 1,000).
Most of the trees meausre in the range of 1 to 20 meters. That would be 0.001 km to 0.020 km.
Thus, kilometer is not a unit that you would need to measure a tree. You'd rather use centimeters, when the tree is small, and meters for most of the trees. You may also use feet, since 1 meter is about 3.28 feet, or even yards, since 1 yard is equal to 3 feet.
