Q.

Two persons start running simultaneously around a circular track of length 600 m from the same point at speeds of 25 kmph and 35 kmph. When will they meet for the first time any where on the track ?

View Answer

Correct choice: B

Explanation:

Time taken to meet the first time = length of track/relative speed Given the length of the track is 600 m The relative speed = 25 + 35 = 60 kmph = 60 x 5/18 m Therefore Time = 600/(25+35) 5/18= 600/60 x (18/5) = 36 sec.
