two cars leave at the same point .the speed of the car is 75 kph and the other one is25 kph.at what time will they be 200 km apart?
-------------------
If they go in opposite directions (180 degs apart), their speeds are added, is 100 kph. In that case it will take 2 hours.
If they go the same direction, they separate at the difference in their speeds, that is, the speed of one relative to the other is 75-25 = 50 kph, and it will take 4 hours.
If the angle between their directions is not 0 or 180 degs, it's more complex, but I can answer that if you think it's needed.
-------------------------------
Also, you asked "at what time", but you didn't say when they started so that cannot be determined.
