Q.

Two cars A and B are moving in the same direction along a straight line with speeds 100 km/h and 80 km/h, respectively such that car A is moving ahead of car B. A person in car B throws a stone with a speed v so that it hits the car A with a speed of 5 m/s. The value of v is ______ km/h.                  [2026]

1 18  
2 28  
3 38  
4 48

The velocity of stone w.r.t to ground is (80+v) km/hr  and velocity w.r.t car A,

(80+v-100)=5×185⇒v=38 km/hr
