Question #1
A thief is spotted by a policeman from a distance of 200 meters. The thief runs at 10 km/h and the policeman chases him at 12 km/h. Find the distance covered by the thief before he is caught.
A. 1000 meters
B. 1200 meters
C. 1100 meters
D. 900 meters

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Relative speed = 12 - 10 = 2 km/h. Time to catch the thief = 0.2 km / 2 km/h = 0.1 hours. Distance covered by thief = Speed * Time = 10 km/h * 0.1 hours = 1 km = 1000 meters.
