Ram and Shyam are moving in the directions opposite to each other. The speed of both persons is 10 Km/hr and 6 Km/hr, respectively. Find the speed of Ram with respect of Shyam

A) 6 Km/hr
B) 16 Km/hr
C) 4 Km/hr
D) 8 Km/hr

Correct Answer:


B) 16 Km/hr

Description for Correct answer:
For relative speed, the two speeds will be added, if the motions of the two objects are in opposite directions.

For relative speed, the two speeds will be subtracted, if the motions of the two objects are in same directions.

Here Required speed = 10 + 6 = `16 Km/hr.
