Time Distance and Speed
The distance between two cities A and B is 330 Km. A train starts from A at 8 a.m. and travel towards B at 60 km/hr. Another train starts from B at 9 a.m and travels towards A at 75 Km/hr. At what time do they meet?
A. 10 a.m B. 10.30 a.m
C. 11 a.m D. 11.30 a.m
Read Solution (Total 3)
-
- C. 11 a.m
Suppose they meet after x hrs from 9 AM.
then
60*(x+1) + 75*x = 330
135 x = 330 -60= 270
x= 270/135 = 2 hrs
so the trains will met at 11 AM. - 13 years agoHelpfull: Yes(15) No(1)
- ANS :C
total distance is 330 ,
train B starts at 9 A.M so in one hour Train A covers 60km remining distance is
330-60=270.
time to meet both the trains=1hr+(remainingdistance)/(v1+v2)
i.e 270/132=1+2=3hr
so they will meet at 8+3=11AM - 13 years agoHelpfull: Yes(5) No(3)
- A train goes in 1 hour = 60 km.
So, remaining distance = 330-60 = 270 km
Now both the train are opposite direction, so relative speed = (75+60) = 135 km/hr
Now, Time = Distance/speed = 270/135 = 2 hour.
So, 9 am + 2 hour = 11 am they are meet. - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(4) No(0)
