Find the minimum speed required by a person standing 5 m behind a bus, to catch the bus in one minute which is moving at a speed of 600 m `min^(-1)`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
605 m `min^(-1)`

`5+S_(b) = V_(P)t`
`S_(b) = 600 xx 1`
`5 + (600 xx 1) = V_(P) xx 1`
`V_(P) = 605` m `min^(-1)`
