P and q are two points 100 km apart. A starts from p towards q at 10 km/hr. B starts running from q at exactly the same time and in the same direction as that of A at 20 km/hr. After an hour, B turns back and changes his speed to 10 km/hr. After another hour, B again turns back and changes his speed to 20 km/hr. He keeps on changing his speed and direction in this same manner until the time he meets A. After how much time will A and B meet for the first time?
