A commuter departs from outpost A at 5:00 AM at 25 km/h. Another starts from A at 7:00 AM at 35 km/h tracking along the same direction corridor. At what distance away from A will they intercept?
Explanation:
By 7:00 AM, the first commuter tracks for 2 hours, covering 25 * 2 = 50 km. Relative speed index = 35 - 25 = 10 km/h. Time to intercept = 50 / 10 = 5 hours. Distance path from point A = Speed of second commuter * Intercept Time = 35 * 5 = 175 km.
