A bus is moving with a velocity 10m s


Asked by admin @ in Physics viewed by 325 People


A bus is moving with a constant velocity 10m/s on a straight road. a scooterist wishes to overtake the bus in 100s . if the bus is at distance of 1km from the scooterist ,then the velocity with which scooterist should chase the bus is?

Answered by admin @



Given:
Time(t)= 100 s , distance (s)=1km= 1000m
Vb=10m/s          (relative speed with respect to the bus)

Velocity (V)=distance /time = 1000/100= 10m/s

Vs= velocity of scooter,  Vb=velocity of bus

V = Vs-Vb         (both bus & scooter are moving in the same direction)
10= Vs-10
10+10 = Vs
20=Vs

Vs=20m/s
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The velocity with which scooterist should chase the bus is20m/s

Hope this will help you.....
