    Question

    Priya headed out from point A at 9 m/s. 12 seconds

    later, her friend Kavya started walking faster from the same place and caught up to Priya in 48 seconds. What was Kavya’s walking speed?
    A 12 m/s Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 10 m/s Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 11 m/s Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Distance covered by Priya in 12 seconds = 9 × 12 = 108 metres

    Relative speed between Kavya and Priya = 108 ÷ 48 = 2.25 m/s

    Since Kavya caught up, she’s quicker.

    So, Kavya’s speed = 9 + 2.25 = 11.25 m/s
