  4. D 4.5 m/sec
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 3 m/sec

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( t_{\text{Ram}} = \frac{900 \text{ m}}{4.5 \text{ m/sec}} = 200 \text{ sec} \) \( D_{\text{Shyam}} = 900 \text{ m} - 150 \text{ m} = 750 \text{ m} \) \( t_{\text{Shyam}} = t_{\text{Ram}} + 50 \text{ sec} = 200 \text{ sec} + 50 \text{ sec} = 250 \text{ sec} \)…
