      Question

      'A' and 'B' are running on a circular track of length

      4500 metres. 'A' is running clockwise at 5 m/s while 'B' is running anti-clockwise at 7 m/s. Find the difference between the distance covered by 'A' and 'B' by the time they meet for the tenth time.
      A 4500 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 7500 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 6250 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 6650 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ, Time taken to meet for the first time = 4500 Γ· (5 + 7) = 375 seconds So, time taken to meet for 10th time = 375 Γ— 10 = 3750 seconds So, distance covered by 'A' in 3750 seconds = 3750 Γ— 5 = 18750 metres And distance covered by 'B' in 3750 seconds = 3750 Γ— 7 = 26250 metres So, required difference = 26250 - 18750 = 7500 metres
