For a race a distance of 224 meters can be covered by P in 28 seconds and Q in 32 seconds. By what distance does P defeat Q eventually?
Answer: B
This is a simple speed time problem. Given conditions:
=>Speed of P= 224/28 = 8m/s
=>Speed of Q=224/32 = 7m/s
=>Difference in time taken = 4 seconds
Therefore, Distance covered by P in that time= 8m/s x 4 seconds = 32 metres
