Solution

The correct option is B

10:18


Let mass of Ram be m1

mass of Shyam be m2

power expended by Ram be P1

power expended by Shyam be P2

height of the tree be h

time taken by ram to climb the tree be t1

time taken by Shyam to climb the tree be t2

Work done = mgh
Power=worktime
P1P2 = m1ght2m2ght1
3:2=50t260t1
t1t2=10:18 = 5:9
