Answer: They meet after 100 hours .

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Distance = 500 km

Speed of first truck = 65 km/hr

Speed of second truck = 60 km/hr

They are started towards each other.

So, Relative speed would be

65-60\\\\=5\ km/hr

So, Time taken would be

\dfrac{500}{5}\\\\=100\ hours

Hence, they meet after 100 hours .
