both will reach at same time since speed = constant and distance = constant (relative to each other ) ..........hence time required will be same

I too have doubt on it.But I''m thinking herohonda will reach first because of air friction opposes more chetak than honda.I think this small friction can cause it because even the mirrors on the handle can cause frictional loss to the bike speed.....Will you agree with me?....any reply will be appreciated....

hai friend, first of all i want to give difinition of speed .speed is the distance between any two points.speedometer shows same reading on both so they travelling with uniform speed in equal time interval so both will reach the destination.

 

 

if you satisfy my answer please click on yes

ofcourse it is. But, to my knowledge speedometer''s reading obtain by sensing the wheel rpm and not by considering distance traveled in certain time.So the reading doesn''t include the effect of air friction much but air opposes the chetak more. So, in my view herohonda will reach little earlier than chetak..
