Solution

The correct option is C 2XV
Velocity of one person towards another person (Relative) as seen from the second person be V1.
Thus, V1=VVCos600 {i.e Velocity of A - Velocity of B along the line of motion of A}
V1=VV2=V2
S=X, (distance between the two person which needs to be covered)
Thus, t=SV1=2XV
