Two boats A and B are moving along perpendicular paths in a still lake at night. Boat A move with a speed of `3 m//s` and boat B moves with a speed of `4 m//s` in the direction such that they collide after sometime. At `t=0`, the boats are `300 m` apart. The ratio of distance of distance travelled by boat A to the distance travelled by boat B at the instant of collision is :-

A

1

B

`1//2`

C

`3//4`

D

`4//3`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`300^(2)=(3t)^(2)+(4t)^(2)`
`300xx300=25t^(2)`
`t=60`
Ratio`=(3xx2sqrt(3))/(4xx2sqrt(3))=3:4`
