उत्तर
3.36 p.m.
Explanation:
Let the distance between station A and station B = d km
Train x covers distance d km in`1 1/2=3/2` hr
∴ Speed of train x`="d"/((3/2))=(2"d")/3` Km/hr
Train y covers distance d km in 1 hr
∴ Speed of the train y`="d"/1` =d km /hr
Let the trains meet x hours after 3 pm
Distance travelled by train x in x hours
`= "x"xx(2"d")/3`km
Distance travelled by train y in x hours
= x × d km
Sum of these distance must be the total distance between station A and B
`"x"xx(2"d")/2+"x"xx"d"="d"`
`"x"+(2"x")/3=1`
`(5"x")/3=1`
`3/5`hr = 36 minutes
So, train eill cross each other at 3.36 p.m.
