Answer:
800 km from Hyderabad station
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between delhi and hyderabad = 1800 km.
let train A proceeds from delhi towards hyderabad with a uniform speed of 60 km/hr.
let train B proceeds from hyderabad towards delhi with a uniform speed of 48 km/hr.
let the trains meet after x hours.
the distance covered by train A in x hours =60x km
the distance covered by train B in x hours =48x km
the total distance = 60x+48x
60x+48x=1800
108x=1800
x=1800/108
x=50/3 hr
=16 (2/3) hr
2/3 * (60)=40 minutes
x= 16 hr 40 minutes
therefore the train will meet after 50/3 hr i.e. 16hr and 40 min.
in 50/3 hr train A will cover the distance 50/3 * 60 = 1000 Km
The trains will meet at a distance of 1000 km from delhi station and at a distance of 1800-1000
=800 km from Hyderabad station.
