  • Question
  • A soldier fired two bullets at an interval of 335 seconds moving at a uniform speed v 1. A terrorist who was running ahead of the soldier in the same direction, hears the two shots at an interval of 330 seconds? If the speed of sound is 1188 km/h, then who is the faster and by how much?


  • Options
  • A. Soldier, 22 km/h
  • B. Terrorist, 25 km/h
  • C. Soldier, 18 km/h
  • D. Terroist, 20 km/h

  • Correct Answer
  • Soldier, 18 km/h 

    Explanation

    Speed of wind (sound) / Relative speed of soldier and terrorist = Time utilised / Difference in time
    1188/x = 330/5
    x = 18 km/h and solder is faster.
