Question

Suppose you are watching a tom and jerry show of tom chasing jerry tom is running at uniform speed of 3m/s and jerry is moving with an uniform speed of 5m/s. Will tom catch jerry ?justify your answer

Answer 1

Answer:

no because speed of Jerry is 2m/s more than that of tom

Answer 2

Explanation:

Yes, there are chances that tom can catch jerry. As,

Tom's uniform speed = 3m/s

Jerry's uniform speed = 5m/s

After 5 seconds by tom and three seconds by jerry,

Distance travelled by tom = 3m/s × 5 seconds

= 15m

And, distance travelled by jerry = 5m/s × 3 seconds

= 15m

Therefore, tom may catch jerry
