Answers
Answer:
11/6m
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :- In a flat race, the runners up, running at 10/3 m/s lost by 3 secs to the winner. If the runners up took 15 secs to cover the distance, what was the speed of the winner ?
Solution :-
→ Speed of runner up = 10/3 m/s
→ Time taken by runner up = 15 seconds
so,
→ Distance covered by runner up = Length of race = speed * time = 10/3 * 15 = 50 m .
now since runner up lost by 3 seconds .
then,
→ Time taken by winner = 15 - 3 = 12 seconds
therefore,
→ Speed of winner = Length of race / time taken = 50/12 = (25/6) m/s (Ans.)
