The distance between two stations A and B is 365 km. A train starts at 10 a.m. from A and move towards B at an average speed of 65 km/hr. Another train starts B at 11 a.m. and moves towards A at an average speed of 35 km/hr. How far from B will the two trains meet and at what time?
105,2 p.m.
100,4 p.m.
100,2 p.m
106,5 p.m
105,5 p.m
Total Distance = 365
Distance covered by A in 1 hour (From 10 AM to 11 AM) = 65
Remaining distance = 365 - 65 => 300
The relative speed of the trains to cover the remaining distance = 65 + 35 => 100 Km/hr
Time taken to cover = 300/100 => 3 hours
Meeting Time = 11 AM + 3 => 2 PM
Speeds Ratio = 65 : 35 => 13: 7
Distance from B when meet = 7/20 x 300 => 105
