    Answer : Option B

    Explanation :

    Le the required time be x seconds.

    More metres, More time (Direct Proportion)

     0.128 : 25 :: 1 : x        0.128x = 25 x 1

    x =\(\frac { 25} {0.128} \)=\(\frac { 25*1000 } {128 } \)

     x = 195.31.

     Required time = 195 sec (approximately).
