Q:

Two trains A and B start simultaneously in the opposite direction from two points P and Q and arrive at their destinations 16 and 9 hours respectively after their meeting each other. At what speed does the second train B travel if the first train travels at 120 km/h

A) 90 km/h	B) 160 km/h
C) 67.5 km/h	D) None of these

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 160 km/h

Explanation:

$\frac{s_{1}}{s_{2}} = \sqrt{\frac{t_{2}}{t_{1}}}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{120}{s_{2}} = \sqrt{\frac{9}{16}} = \frac{3}{4}$

$\Rightarrow$ $s_{2} = 160 k m / h$
