Question

On a city road, the last traffic light glows green for 60 s and red for 120 s. The range of speeds of vehicles is from 503ms1 to 2009ms1 in a group. The speed of each  vehicle is constant. It is found that at a distance x from traffic light, then the successive groups pushing through traffic light place will become indistinguishable. The value of x (in km) is _______________.

Moderate
Solution

x=2009t=503(t+120) or 200t9=50t3+503×120 or 200t150t9=2000 or 50t=2000×9 t=2000×950=360s x=2009×360=200×40=8000m=8km
