    Question



    Two cars start moving towards each other when they are 45 kms apart. The first car moves at a speed of 40 m/s and the second one at 50 m/s. after how much time do they meet?

    A.

    480 seconds

    B.

    500 seconds

    C.

    360 seconds

    D.

    450 seconds

    Correct option is B


    Speed of the first car = 40 m/s = 40/1000 km/s = 0.04 km/s
    Speed of the second car = 50 m/s = 50/1000 km/s = 0.05 km/s
    Since the cars are moving towards each other, their speeds add up.
    Relative speed = 0.04 km/s + 0.05 km/s = 0.09 km/s
    Time = Distance / Relative speed
    Time = 45 km / 0.09 km/s = 500 seconds
