Practicing Success
Two people A and B are at a distance of 220 km from each other at 10: 30 Am. After 30 minutes. A starts moving towards B at a speed of 40 km/hr while at 12 PM, B starts moving away from A at a speed of 30 km/hr. At what time will they meet on the next day? |
7 : 00 AM 4 : 00 AM 5 : 30 AM 6 : 00 AM |
6 : 00 AM |
A starts running at 11:00 pm Distance = Speed × Time So , Distance traveled by A in 1 hour from 11:00 pm to 12:00 pm = 40 × 1 = 40 km Remaining distance = 220 - 40 = 180 km Relative speed = 40 - 30 = 10 km/h ( when moves in same direction ) Time taken = \(\frac{Distance }{Speed}\) = \(\frac{180 }{10}\) = 18 hours So , They will meet = 12:00 pm + 18 hours = 6:00 AM |
