Given :- In a 200 m race, Eswar gives Girish a start of 10 m and beats him by 10 m. Find the ratio of their speeds ?
Answer :-
→ Total length of race = 200 m .
since Eswar gives girish a start of 10 m.
then,
→ Distance run by Eswar = 200 m.
and,
→ Distance run by girish = 200 - 10 = 190 m .
also, given that, he beats girish by 10 m .
then, we can say that, When Eswar completes the race of 200 m , girish was 10 m behind.
therefore,
→ When Eswar runs 200 m = Girish runs (190 - 10) = 180 m.
→ Eswar distance / Girish distance = 200/180
→ Eswar distance : girish distance = 10 : 9 .
we know that,
- when time is constant , speed ∝ distance.
hence,
→ Eswar speed : Girish speed = 10 : 9 (Ans.)
