Question

    Vicky and Vikram start running simultaneously around a rectangular track of length 750m from the same point at speeds of 40 km/hr and 35 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 = 40 + 35 = 75 km/hrs Time taken to meet for the first time = length of the track/ relative speed => 750 / (40 + 35) => (750 x 18)/(75 x 5) = 36 sec
