Question

A car travelling at 60km/hr overtakes another car travelling at 42km/hr .assuming each car to be 5 m long find the time taken during the overtake.also calculate total road distance used for the overtake.

Answer 1

I can prove that distance is 33.3m

total time is 2second
distance covered by Car A = 60×5/18×2=600/18
Distance covered by Car B
= 42×5/18×2=420/18

Difference between distance covered= sum of Lenght of CarA and Car B

$\frac{600}{18} - \frac{420}{18} = \frac{180}{18} = 10m$
