    A police jeep is chasing with velocity of 45 km/h a thief in another jeep moving with velocity 153 km/h. Police fires a bullet with muzzle velocity of 180 m/s. The velocity it will strike the car of the thief is

    A)  150 m/s

    C)  450 m/s             

    D)  250 m/s

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Since, police jeep and thief are moving in the same direction relative velocity is                 \[{{v}_{\sigma }}={{\mathbf{v}}_{1}}-{{\mathbf{v}}_{2}}=153-45\]                     \[=108km/h\]                      \[=108\times \frac{5}{18}=30\min \]
