This is from hcverma na.. i guess someone else also had a trouble
The answer comes short by 5 because the length o fthe car has to be added :)
let it overtake at time t
then 35t/3+10=50t/3
t=2.
this is first part of ques. which i got correct.
next total road distance used =35t/3+5+5
=33.33=33
why to add 5??????????????
sorry i deleted my post.. i made a mistake took 5 not 10 :P
Let me post the image and my understanding of the question..
The green line gives the total distance travelled by the black car..
Orange shows the length of the road used..
with wat minimum speed shud a motorbike be moving on the road to safely cross a 11.7ft wide ditch with approach roads at an angle of 15 degree with the horizontal.assume length of bike is 5 ft and it leaves the road as soon as front part runs out of approach of road.
The range will 11.7 + 5 ft
+5 sine the bike will be stable only if it cross the pit and lands with the back will also on the road. Since the length is 5 ft you have to add it
John I dont see too much wrong in the discussion between you and virang!
OK JUS TELL range will be 11.7+5cos 15+5cos 15 OR NOT?WHY?????????
