answer must be a/b or b/a

Question:

If two person A and B start at the same time in opposite direction from two points and after passing each other they complete the journey in a and b hours respectively, then the ratio of A’s and B’s speed will be:

Options:
A) \(\sqrt[]{a}:\sqrt[]{b}\)
B) \(\sqrt[]{b}:\sqrt[]{a}\)
C) \(\sqrt[]{a}+\sqrt[]{b}:\sqrt[]{a}-\sqrt[]{b}\)
D) None of these
Solution:
Ans: (b)

Let total distance be D km. and A’s speed be x km/hr and B’s speed be y km/hr.


\(\cfrac{v1}{v2}\)=\(\sqrt{\cfrac{t2}{t1}}\)
\(\Rightarrow\)\(\cfrac{x}{y}\)=\(\sqrt{\cfrac{b}{a}}\)

\(\Rightarrow\)\(\cfrac{x}{y}\)=\(\cfrac{\surd b}{\surd a}\)
