ratio of the speed of Navneet and Harpreet = 1: sq root 2

If N is speed of Navneet and H is speed of Harpreet and they first met at distance y from Navneet end and x is total distance, then
y=2N
y+H=x
x-y=H
also Time taken by them for second meeting after meeting is same.
so 2y/H = 2(x-y)/N
N/H= (x-y)/y =H/2N
2N^2=H^2
N/H = 1/(sq root2)
