Question

Vicky and Vikram start running simultaneously around a rectangular track of length 800m from the same point at speeds of 35 km/hr and 25 km/hr. When will they meet for the first time anywhere on the track if they are moving in opposite directions?

A 42 sec Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B 36 sec Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C 48 sec Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D 60 sec Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

Relative speed = 35 + 25 = 60 km/hrs Time taken to meet for the first time = length of the track/ relative speed => 800 / (35 + 25) => (800 x 18)/(60 x 5) = 48 sec
