Solution

$\dfrac{v_A}{v_B}=\dfrac{1000}{950}=\dfrac{20}{19}$,   $\dfrac{v_B}{v_C}=\dfrac{500}{450}=\dfrac{10}{9}$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{v_A}{v_C}=\dfrac{200}{171}$

When A runs $400$ m, C runs $400\times\dfrac{171}{200}=342$ m.

Difference $=400-342=58$ m.

Answer: 58 meters

Solution

Total distance = 6 km, Total time = 90 min = 1.5 hr

Distance covered = $\frac{2}{3}\times6=4$ km, Time taken = $\frac{2}{3}\times90=60$ min = 1 hr

Speed in first part = $\dfrac{4}{1}=4$ km/hr

Remaining distance = 2 km, Remaining time = 0.5 hr

Required speed = $\dfrac{2}{0.5}=4$ km/hr
