Answer 2

Answer:

In 0.02 hours or say 1.2 minutes the car will be 250m ahead of the bus.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of car = 60 kmph

speed of bus = 35 kmph

Car is 250 m behind the Bus initially .

To overtake the Bus by 250 m

Extra Distance travelled car = 250 + 250 m = 500 m

Let the time taken be t from initial state

Distance = speed x time

So, distance travelled by the Bus in time t

= 35 t

Distance travelled by the Car = 60 t

Therefore, 35 t + 500 = 60 t

or, 25 t = 500 /1000 = 0.5 km

so, t = 0.5 km /25 km/h = 0.02 hours

So, in 0.02 hours or say 1.2 minutes the car will be 250m ahead of the bus.
