Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFLet speed be x km/hr
So, distance between stations = 10x km
When trains are travelling in opposite direction, relative speed = 2x km/hr.
Train A leaving at 5 am and train B at 7 am,
⇒ Distance travelled by A in 2 hrs = 2x
⇒ Remaining distance = 10x - 2x = 8x
⇒ Meeting time = 8x/2x = 4 hrs
∴ After 4 hrs, at 11 am train B will meet train A.
