Ram and Shyam are moving in the directions opposite to each other. The Speeds of both persons are 10 km/h and 6 km/h, respectively. Find the speeds of Ram with respect of Shyam.

6 km/h
16 km/h
4 km/h
8 km/h

Correct Answer: 16 km/h

Explanation:

We know that for relative speed, the two speeds will be added, if the motions of the two objects are in opposite directions.
∴ Required speed = 10 + 6 = 16 km/h
