Practicing Success
A bus starts from a bus station after every 30 minutes in the same direction. The speed of each bus is the same. Z is riding a bike in the opposite direction at a speed of 25 km/h. Z meets each bus in 20 minutes. What is the speed of each bus? |
50 km/h 75 km/h 30 km/h 60 km/h |
50 km/h |
According to question , Distance traveled by bus in 10 min = Distance traveled by Bike in 20 minutes Ratio of Time taken by Bus to Bike = 1 : 2 As Speed is inversely proportional to Time So , Ratio of Speed of Bus to Bike = 2 : 1 Now , 1R = 25 km/h ( Given) 2R = 2 × 25 = 50 km/h So , Speed of Bus = 50 km/h |
