Kinematics Question 353

Question: Three elephants A, B and C are moving along a straight line with constant speed in same direction . Speed of a is 5m/s and speed of c is 10 m/s. Initially separation between A and b is ’d’ and between B and c is also. When ‘B’ catches ‘C’ separation between A and C becomes 3d. Then the speed of B will be

Options:

A) 7.5m/s

B) 15m/s

C) 20 m/s

D) m/s

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

B catches C in time t then t=du10 . Separation by this time has increased by ’d’ between A and C hence (105)×d(u10)=d,u=15m/s
