I am still having trouble with this physics stuff, and this is the last question I am asking on this topic since I am almost doing this right, but if i am not can anyone help me please?
In a marathon race, one runner moving at 5.0km/s passes a second runner moving at 4.5m/s. What is the distance between the runners 10 minutes after the one runner passes the other?
so far i have got:
runner 1- Velocity (speed) = 5.0km/s
Time = 10 minutes
runner 2- Velocity = 4.5 m/s
Time = 10 minutes
so the formula to finding the distance is: d= V x T
since there is 60s in every 1 minute, and 1000m in every 1km, then the new equation should be:
d= v x t = 5.0km/s x 10 mins = 4.5m/s x 10 mins = 1min x 60s = 1km x 1000mins
that is where I get stuck, especially since I honestly have no clue if I am even doing this right.
can anyone please help me, and show me how to do this physics question?
