Question

a man Walks up a stationary escalator in 90 seconds when this man stands on a moving escalator he goes up and 60 seconds the time taken by the man to walk up the moving escalator is

Open in App

Solution

Distance traveled = D
speed of escalator = D/60 units
speed of the person = D/90 units

total speed = D /60 + D/90 = D/36 units
Time if walks on moving escalator = D/ [D/36] = 36 sec.
