At what time does Rohit overtake Rahul? Correct Answer 9:50 AM
Given:
The length of rectangular track = 6 km
Breath of rectangular track = 4 km
Speed of Rohit = 6 km/hr
Speed of Rahul = 8 km/hr
Calculations:
At 8:50 AM Rohit would have run = 6 × 50/60 = 5 km
He will 5 km away from Rahul.
He will overtake Rahul = 5/(6 – 1) = 1 hr
At 9:50 AM Rohit overtake Rahul.
