A bus moving at a speed of 45 km/hr overtakes a truck 150 metres ahead going in the same direction in 30 seconds. The speed of the truck is
-
- 27 km/hr
- 24 km/hr
- 25 km/hr
- 28 km/hr
Correct Option: A
Let the speed of the truck be x kmph
Relative speed of the bus = (45 - x) kmph
| ∴ Time = | |
| Relative speed |
| ⇒ | |
| 60 × 60 |
| = | |
| 1000 | |
| ⇒ | = | ||
| 120 | 100(45 − x) |
| ⇒ | = | ⇒ (45 − x) = 18 | ||
| 6 | (45 − x) |
⇒ x = 45 – 18 = 27 kmph
