Question

A car travelling at 60km/hr overtakes another car traveling at 42km/hr. assuming each car to be 5m long, find the time taken during the overtake

Answer 1

0.25 km/h is the right answer

Answer 2

Relative speed = (60-42)kmph = 18 kmph = 18×1000/3600m/s = 5m/s
Distance to cover = (5+5)m =10m
Therefore, time taken =distance/speed =10m/(5m/s) = 2s [Answer]
