Question:

A train starts running at a uniform speed of 30 km/h from station A towards station B . At the same time another train starts running from station B towards station A. If the distance between A & B is 760 kms and the trains meet in Nine and a half hours, then what is the speed of the train running towards station A in km/h ?

Options:

50

80

100

150

Correct Answer:

50

Explanation:

Relative speed = (30 + S2) = \(\frac{Distance}{Time}\)

⇒    (30 + S2) = \(\frac{760}{9.5}\) = 80

⇒    S2 = 50 km/h
