Answer:

The time of oil tanker will be 80 sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

He walks at 3 km/hour.

If the container ship is 100 m long, and travelling at 12 km/hour.

The distance will be 200 m.

We need to calculate the relative velocity

Using formula of relative velocity

v_{21}=v_{2}-v_{1}

Put the value into the formula

v_{21}=12-3

v_{21}=9\ km/h

The distance is 200 m.

We need to calculate the time

Using formula of time

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

t=\dfrac{d}{v}

Put the value into the formula

t=\dfrac{200}{9\times\dfrac{5}{18}}

t=80 sec

Hence, The time of oil tanker will be 80 sec.
